As a Navajo (Diné) jeweler and metalsmith, the work I create primarily focuses on the use of precious metals, that creates an ancestral connection to my jewelry. The purpose of my work is to showcase my traditional roots and bring that Southwestern aesthetic into the modern era. I make one-of-a-kind jewelry, never making the same piece twice to challenge myself as an artist, and provide a unique experience for viewers. My jewelry is meant to share the love of my craft, culture, and spread the happiness I found within making each of my creations. With my newfound knowledge and education from the Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA) I intend on becoming a pioneer in the jewelry industry by sharing the stories of the Diné people and serving as an educator to future generations. 

Thank-you for giving me a beautiful 4 years in my career! I could not have done it without you all.
