I consider taking a road trip with my husband to be the epitome of happiness. It's been so hectic lately that it's been hard to plan one, but we always drive to North Carolina, where he's from, for Christmas. We'll be doing that again soon.

Seeing my ideas come to reality. Seeing how happy it makes other people to wear them. Seeing them on other people makes me the happiest.

I love how significant jewelry is throughout the world and throughout time. People have been adorning themselves with jewelry for years and its one of the oldest forms of art and design. This is something that has and will always inspire me.

As far as inspiration goes, I'm constantly inspired by traveling, symbols, magic and different cultural traditions around the world.

To me, jewelry is a natural progression and there is something so meaningful and magical about creating that one of a kind, special piece.

I'm always inspired by the hidden treasures, unique personalities and New York's overall charm.
