Wedding Bands
Brass, 24k gold plate, white zircon

Wedding Bands are about commitment. The inherent connotations are a huge part of the piece and, quite often, reveal themselves as a social or sexual comment.

The rings are constructed out of brass then plated in 24k gold. And although the stone is set into the men's ring, when screwed together, the stone actually sits against the woman's finger.

Sterling Silver

This ring was constructed out of wax and cast using the lost wax method. The process is conducive to building up several layers of wax intuitively. The ring is extremely tactile and a fun piece to wear.

Sterling Silver, Amethyst

The waxwing is one of Alberta's most elegant birds. Its stoic silhouette can be recognized at a glance. The brooch is pierced out of sterling silver sheet with three amethyst stones set on the frame.

This bracelet embodies the beauty of nature during the winter months. The sterling silver leaves are individually fold formed and hung on a thick chain of silver. Each leaf is unique and no two are alike.

Ring of Power

Ring of Power
Copper, tiger's eye

I created this ring in response to an assignment to create a "Ring of Power" at the Alberta College of Art + Design. I decided to take the assignment literally to build a ring that could actually fit in a conventional wall socket. The ring is hollow constructed out of copper for an industrial aesthetic.

House
≠Home asks the question 'What makes a place home?' I have come to believe that a home is not a physical place but rather an emotion you can carry with you. When a person feels safe and secure, they are more willing to open themselves up and be who they really are. This is when a person often feels most at home.

The ring is hollow constructed out of copper and etched with phrases and words pertaining to the concept of home.
