I can't thank my customers enough for supporting my shop over the years, and for allowing me to pursue this dream of mine. I feel incredibly grateful to be able to do a job I love. Please enjoy your visit and feel free to contact me with any questions.Each piece of jewelry is designed and created by my hands... great consideration is given to the materials, textures, colors, and the way light reflects or passes through each. My main collections are VINTAGE CHIC, my vintage-inspired jewelry line, and MODERN GEOMETRY, my contemporary & oxidized sterling silver jewelry collection. A little about my design & business background: After graduating from Cornell University's College of Architecture, I ventured to New York City to work in the architecture industry. I lived in NYC for over 10 years and loved every dirty, noisy, energy-induced moment. Way back In 1998, I left the architecture profession to launch Four Eyes Productions, a web design & development studio, with my husband Michael. Today, twelve years later, we still run Four Eyes together. He heads up programming, and I manage the business end of Four Eyes, and still dabble in the design aspects of many of the web sites. I have been very passionate about nurturing the growth of Shy Siren over the years (founded in 2003). Although I share my time between my two businesses, I feel so enthusiastic to get back to the studio to make jewelry.
