Sustainable fashion is possible when artisans consider closing the waste loop. I am committed diverting as much waste as possible from ending up in landfills by sourcing materials locally to decrease their ecological footprint. By creating jewelry from usually discarded bits of rubber and plastic, I feel like I am making a small but significant step towards a cleaner and healthier world. And by sourcing my materials locally or when I am already traveling, I can reduce the number of fossil fuels used to get them to my studio. 

I choose to package my jewelry designs in Earth friendly canvas bags and paper.
