For almost 15 years I have been a Snowboard Instructor and Fine Arts Audio-Visual Design teacher at a cute and small college nearby my city of birth Amsterdam. In 2014 I became ill. With the big ‘40 years old’ in sight, I decided to alter my life and try to find a way to fill the second phase of my life, with the same amount of love and joy as I did have being a college teacher. I still miss my cute and naughty students and workaholic colleagues every day.
But I enjoy each day now, when I can be close to my two little girls Roxy and Ruby who make me laugh every day. Recovering from hospital treatments during the past five years made me realize I have chosen the right path to enjoy life again; studying to become a master goldsmith and an excellent gem cutter.
I love my new job; it makes my creative brain bloom again and my heart swell with pleasure.
I would love to design your wedding ring, anniversary parure or personalized birth bracelets and announcements cards. To design a special gift for your mom and loved ones, or to alter some pieces of inherited jewelry to remember your great grandparents. To make old-fashioned things look brand new and ready to wear for decades, to pass on to your lovely daughters.
Do you have some costume jewelry pieces that need a clean-up or repair? Get in contact and we’ll decide what will be the proper steps to take, to rescue the pieces and make them shiny and wearable again for decades to come!
