I have been drawn to the jewelry cases at my favorite shops and boutiques for as long as I can remember. In 2008, on a mission to find the perfect bead for a chandelier I was planning to restring, I became sidetracked by all the natural gemstones I discovered and instead was inspired to create my own jewelry.

CSJ was established in 2010. With a life-long appreciation of both fashion and nature, inspiration for my jewelry comes from fashion trends, travel, and beautiful things and places. Most of my hand-crafted jewelry is made with natural gemstones and 14 karat gold-filled metal, and it continues to evolve with experience and the development of new techniques. I enjoy designing simple, everyday staples that can be worn both day and night, as well as one-of-a-kind statement pieces. In 2014 I extended the collection to incorporate personalized jewelry.

In addition to selling on Etsy, I participate in local events and markets around Texas (Austin Fashion Week, Houston's annual Winter Holiday Art Market, etc.).
