Important Update
I am teaching large groups and private lessons at Mountain Gems in Burnaby as well as other community locations. If you are interested in joining the group classes available please search the workshops at Mountain Gems. You can enquire directly with them.
My private lessons are now at Mountain Gems. Please book with me directly.
My home studio visits are still bookable. I can help you set up your home studio safely with considerations for fuel, fire, particulate and fume extraction. Disability accommodations are my speciality. Online consultation is now offered.

Repairs
Many repairs for my own jewellery are free, depending on the situation.
Please email with as much detail as possible including clear photos so I can help quickly and accurately.
Custom Jewellery Payment Process
For custom work, I can offer a three-stage payment structure to keep things fair, transparent, and manageable for both of us. A 50% deposit starts the process, this covers design time, materials, and holds your place in my schedule. This deposit is non-refundable once work has begun.
Once you've approved the design (whether it's sketches, wax, or photos), a second payment of 25% is due so I can move into fabrication. The remaining 25% is paid once the piece is complete, before pickup or delivery.
This process keeps you involved and helps support the time, materials, and skill that go into creating something truly one-of-a-kind.
