Who am I

My journey began in Fort Worth Tx in 1957 and since then, the outdoors has been my constant calling. Rockhounding, scuba diving, fishing, hunting consumes me with a passion that some describe as an obsession. My wanderings have covered remarkable ground: across the US, deep into the Big Bend desert, through New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada - to the vastness of Northwest Canada, and across the sea to various Caribbean Islands. In every location, my quest is to find the perfect stone to bring home. With these collected treasures- stones, minerals, and coral- I craft simple, one of a kind, and affordable jewelry. Petrified wood, an array of agates, jaspers, and other intriguing rocks and minerals I’ve personally discovered, are my most cherished materials to transform.
