In 2003 B.J.C. (before jewelry career), Tina went searching for a mom’s bracelet for herself....murky territory for someone who doesn’t wear jewelry. One night about a week into her search, a vision of a bracelet popped up in her dream. Search over.

Self-taught since the morning after that dream, Tina has created a special niche based on an intuitive perception of what her customers covet: simple, yet unordinary personal jewelry. Don’t let the word simple fool you...that which draws your eye is an appeal that comes from unique & understated combinations of materials often centered around her handmade pendants & charms. Good stuff.

What started as an abstract moment in her sleep has flourished into a dynamic artpreneurship that has touched many lives. Tina’s work continues to be dictated by her dreams & serendipitous moments. It is also influenced by her beautiful & patient husband and children, amazing circle of friends & supportive customers. Her personal approach is born from her rich upbringing in a large Mexican-Italian family that instilled the gifts of wicked humor, a strong work ethic & a love of diversity. Priceless.

As a side note, Tina is pretty sure her soul is recycled from some good & noteworthy folks from days long gone.....not sure who, but they insist on jewelry that captures a look from days long gone. Timeless.
