Hello, beautiful souls,
As I sit here in my Big Sur studio, watching the morning light dance across the Pacific, I can hardly believe another year has graced my journey around the sun. Today marks not just my birthday, but a moment of profound reflection on the incredible path that has led me to you—my cherished community of kindred spirits who appreciate the artistry and intention behind every piece I create.
This milestone feels different somehow. Perhaps it's the wisdom that comes with another year of growth, or maybe it's the overwhelming gratitude I feel for each of you who has chosen to carry a piece of my heart with you in the form of Sculptress jewelry. Whatever it is, I'm moved to celebrate in a way that honors our beautiful connection.
A Journey Born from Passion and Purpose
When I first began this journey, I never imagined the profound impact that creating jewelry would have on my soul—and on yours. What started as whispered dreams in my heart has blossomed into something far greater than I ever envisioned. Each morning, I wake up knowing that somewhere in the world, a woman is wearing one of my creations, feeling a little more confident, a little more radiant, a little more connected to her inner goddess.
This calling chose me as much as I chose it. In the quiet moments of crafting, when my hands work with precious metals and ethically sourced gemstones, I feel the divine feminine energy flowing through each piece. It's not just jewelry I'm creating—it's a talisman of empowerment, a reminder of the limitless potential that resides within every woman who wears my designs.
The majestic landscapes of Big Sur have been my constant companion and muse. The rolling hills, the endless ocean, the ancient redwoods—they whisper secrets of resilience and grace that I weave into every creation. When you wear Sculptress jewelry, you're not just adorning yourself with beautiful metals and stones; you're connecting with the raw, untamed beauty of nature itself.
My Heart's Deepest Gratitude
As I celebrate another year of life, I find myself overwhelmed with gratitude for the trust you've placed in me. You've invited my artistry into your most precious moments—your weddings, your anniversaries, your daily rituals of self-love and affirmation. You've shared your stories with me, and in doing so, you've become part of my story too.
Every testimonial, every photograph you've shared wearing my pieces, every moment you've chosen Sculptress to mark something meaningful in your life—these are the gifts that have made my journey as an artist so profoundly fulfilling. You've taught me that jewelry is never just about adornment. It's about connection, memory, and the beautiful ways we choose to honor ourselves and those we love.
I think about the woman who wore her custom Sculptress necklace to her job interview and felt an extra surge of confidence. I remember the mother who chose my earrings to commemorate her daughter's graduation, creating a tangible link between generations. These stories live in my heart and fuel my passion for creating pieces that do more than simply sparkle—they empower, they inspire, they transform.
A Birthday Celebration We Can Share Together
This year, I want to celebrate my birthday by giving back to the community that has given me so much. For the next few days, I'm offering 25% off select pieces from the Sculptress collection. This isn't just a sale—it's my way of saying thank you for being part of this beautiful journey with me.
I've carefully curated a selection of pieces that hold special meaning in my heart. These are the designs that represent different chapters of my artistic evolution, the ones that have touched the most souls, and the pieces that continue to inspire me every day. When you choose one of these special pieces, you're not just taking advantage of a birthday offer—you're claiming a piece of my artistic journey for yourself.
Whether you've been part of the Sculptress family for years or you're just discovering my work, this is your invitation to find that perfect piece that speaks to your soul. Maybe it's the delicate necklace that will become your daily talisman, or perhaps it's the bold statement earrings that will remind you of your inner fire. Trust your intuition—it will guide you to the piece that's meant to be yours.
The Art of Intentional Creation
Each piece in the Sculptress collection begins as a meditation, a moment of quiet communion between my creative spirit and the materials before me. I work exclusively with ethically sourced gemstones and precious metals because I believe that the energy of how something is created lives within it forever. When you wear my jewelry, you're wearing intentions of love, respect for our earth, and honor for the skilled artisans who help bring my visions to life.
My process is deeply intuitive. I might spend hours with a single stone, feeling its energy, understanding its story, before I know exactly how it wants to be set. This isn't mass production—this is artistry in its purest form. Every curve, every texture, every detail is considered and reconsidered until it perfectly embodies the vision I hold for it.
The waterproof and sweatproof qualities of my designs aren't just practical features—they're symbols of resilience. Just like you, these pieces are made to withstand life's adventures while maintaining their beauty and integrity. They're designed for the woman who doesn't want to dim her light for anyone or anything, who wants to sparkle whether she's in the boardroom or hiking mountain trails.
What This Moment Means to Me
As I reflect on this birthday and the year ahead, I'm filled with excitement for the journey that awaits us. There are new designs dancing in my imagination, inspired by the changing seasons, the stories you've shared with me, and the ever-evolving understanding of what it means to celebrate the divine feminine.
I see Sculptress not just as a jewelry brand, but as a movement—a celebration of women supporting women, of choosing beauty that aligns with our values, of wearing our confidence like the crown it is. When you wear my pieces, you become ambassadors of this vision, spreading the message that true beauty comes from authenticity, that real luxury lies in pieces that are made with intention and worn with purpose.
The connections I've made through this work have transformed my life in ways I never expected. You've taught me that art isn't just about the creation—it's about the relationships it fosters, the conversations it starts, and the way it brings like-minded souls together across distances and differences.

It's about recognizing that every purchase you make is an investment in a dream, a vote for ethical practices in the jewelry industry, and a celebration of the artisan craft that is becoming increasingly rare in our fast-paced world.
When you choose a piece from this special birthday collection, you're choosing to honor yourself in a way that aligns with your values. You're choosing quality over quantity, intention over impulse, artistry over automation. You're joining a community of women who understand that the things we choose to surround ourselves with matter, that they should inspire us and remind us of our own worth.
I invite you to browse the collection with your heart open. Let yourself be drawn to the pieces that make you feel something—that spark of recognition, that whisper of "yes, this is meant for me." Trust that feeling. It's your intuition guiding you toward something that will bring joy and meaning to your daily life.
