The raw beauty and vibrant colours of the natural world inspire and influence my designs. I'm particularly drawn to the uniqueness of crystals and gemstones; they feature throughout my work, accented by Czech glass, metal, leather and wood. While living in Australia in my early twenties, I discovered a DIY earrings kit at a craft market. That was the beginning of my love affair with beads. Since then, I have become a voracious collector of beads, sourcing them from all corners of the globe. Gemstone and crystal beads are those I'm most passionate about.

You could say I've been a "creative" type my whole life. From writing and drawing to designing and sewing clothing, I've always enjoyed making things. Creating jewellery is another incarnation of that same passion.
I love to learn new skills. There are many techniques in the world of jewellery making that I'm yet to develop so I will be creatively sustained for years to come. You can follow my creative journey on Instagram @intuitivejewellery
