Featured in "Women in Business" in the Delta Optimist
This week, I was honoured to be featured in the Delta Optimist as part of their Women in Business section. In the lead-up to International Women’s Day, they’re showcasing incredible local women who’ve made an impact in their fields, and I’m proud to be included alongside them. Jewellery design has been my career and passion for over 25 years. Crafting custom pieces for clients in Ladner, BC, and beyond has always been about more than just the jewellery—it’s about creating meaningful stories that last a lifetime.

Proudly Made in Canada 🇨🇦
As someone born and raised here in British Columbia, I take a lot of pride in ensuring my jewellery is not only beautiful but proudly made in Canada. My boutique is based in the heart of Ladner Village—a vibrant and welcoming community that has inspired me since I opened my doors (schedule a consultation with me at #1 - 4803 Haviland St, Delta!). Every piece I create is custom-designed to reflect the unique stories of those who treasure it.
Whether it’s an engagement ring symbolizing a life-changing moment or a necklace carrying the memory of a loved one, my goal is always the same: crafting something personal and meaningful. There’s something so special about collaborating with clients to bring their vision to life and knowing that the final piece is truly one of a kind.
