Comfy or bust! If jewelry’s going to live on your body, it should feel good. One of my core values is making sure every piece feels good to wear. If something is too heavy, pulls on my ears or neck, or makes it hard to use my hands, I know I won’t reach for it—no matter how cool or beautiful it is. Maybe that’s just me… but I doubt it. So I design with comfort in mind. 

I weigh earrings as I go to ensure they stay under or around 6 grams, which is as heavy as I want an earring to be. Rings and bracelets stay as proportional as possible because we're going for daily wear on these pieces. This isn't fancy china only meant to be used on special occasions; we're wearing these things to work, dinner, and performances. 

Will I make big, dramatic, heavy pieces someday? Maybe! But for now, I’m keeping earrings light and rings manageable—because feeling good matters just as much as looking good.
