I’ve been making jewelry for over 20 years, drawn to the quiet magic of shaping metal into meaning. What started as a creative spark at the bench has evolved into a life’s work — crafting bespoke pieces that honor life’s most meaningful moments and teaching others to find their own rhythm with the torch.

After years of running a brick-and-mortar jewelry studio and teaching workshops in California, I moved with my family to the coast of Huatulco, Mexico to live more intentionally and creatively. That shift — both external and internal — deeply shaped my work and how I share it with others.

Whether I’m designing a one-of-a-kind engagement ring or helping a student master their first solder seam, I believe in slow-crafted, soulful work. I value process, patience, and the power of making something real with your hands.

What I Offer:

 Luz de Luna Jewelry: Bespoke, handcrafted jewelry made to celebrate love, memory, and transformation.

Online Metalsmithing Courses: Self-paced and mentored options to support beginner and growing metalsmiths.

 Studio Memberships: A way to stay connected to the craft with lessons, resources, and community.

I teach with the same values I bring to my jewelry: clarity, beauty, intention, and heart. My goal is to help others experience the creative spark that’s kept me lit for two decades.

When I’m not at my workbench or teaching, I’m parenting my son, soaking up sun by the sea, or writing my weekly newsletter, The Weekly Shift — a creative love letter to change, creativity, and growth.

Whether you’re here to learn or to celebrate something meaningful with a custom piece, welcome.
