artist

Making art is my passion and these days I’m into painting and printmaking. When my kids were old enough to be in school full time, I enrolled at the New York Studio School of Drawing, Painting & Sculpture and dove back into creating full force, showing and selling my work.

creative DIRECTOR

Before co-founding DailyCreative with Blythe Harris in 2021, I liaised on some amazing projects that involved design, branding, creative direction, concepting collections, prop styling, video production, website direction, marketing and social media. Clients included Sotheby’s Diamonds & James de Givenchy of Taffin, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Stella & Dot, Sailormade, and a digital media start-up.

jewelry designer

I launched my namesake jewelry business in 2004 after making a few pieces for myself that kept selling to friends. I went back to school for metal working, wax carving and casting. My designs were sold internationally, included in an American Vogue editorial, and featured on the cover of a Phillips Jewels auction in London. In 2010, I participated in an exhibition at The Museum of Art & Design in New York of emerging jewelry artists from around the world, chosen by the museum’s curators.

illustrator

I worked as an artist and illustrator in the early aughts when a dream opportunity led me to be chosen to create 60 watercolor illustrations for a book by Random House. This project was very special to me because it launched my career as an artist. I created illustrations for magazines, corporate and individual commissions. I continued to work as an artist while studying jewelry and creating my namesake jewelry business.

teacher

Some of the most rewarding opportunities I’ve had involved teaching, including leading a class at Parson’s School of Design affiliate in Altos de Chavon in the Dominican Republic. I love mentoring students and a look forward to sharing the value of creative play through DailyCreative.
