What elevates a piece of jewelry in your eyes?

I find jewelry to be a timestamp, a memory, an heirloom. Adding something for each special occasion is like wearing a storybook on your body. Then it can be passed down someday if it feels right.

How has being a newlywed changed your jewelry POV?

After getting married and having a new stack on my left hand, I am more intentional about the rings I wear on a daily basis. I’ve been rebranding my everyday stack since, and think that adding a ring with my new last name initial on it, would be really special.

How do you approach choosing jewelry for yourself?

As someone who was single for many years before I met my husband, I truly learned the act of self-love. I still treat myself on a regular basis, whether it’s for a work milestone, my birthday or just seeing something I resonate with for that next special occasion or life chapter.

Jewelry often completes an outfit—how do you style pieces to reflect your aesthetic?

I choose with intention and think about the ‘pay-per-wear.’ And less is more—I prefer to wear a bold piece balanced with something simple. For example, diamond studs with a bold necklace, my watch and wedding rings. If I'm stacking a ton of rings, I’ll probably skip the necklace and perhaps choose a bolder earring.
