BEST FRIENDS IN LIFE, PARTNERS IN CREATIVITY.
OWNER & FOUNDER
I've been designing and making jewelry for 17 years and started HEIR while studying Industrial Design at NC State. I was frustrated by jewelry that couldn't keep up with real life, so I started experimenting with materials and making pieces I could shower, swim, work out—and occasionally rave—in without taking them off.
My work is shaped by life abroad & a design education that taught me to care deeply about how things are made. The name HEIR is a nod to all of it—the knowledge, places and people I've inherited from and carry into my work.
Eleven years later, the idea is still pretty simple: create beautiful jewelry, make it last, and leave it on.
PERMANENT JEWELRY SPECIALIST &
CONTRIBUTING PARTNER
I'm an artist and designer who's spent the last 15 years working across illustration, jewelry, product design, and production.
Sophie and I met on our first day at NC State 12 years ago, and our friendship became a creative partnership when HEIR added permanent jewelry in 2023. I was immediately drawn to how personal the process is—meeting someone, helping them find something that feels like them, and creating it together in real time.
Today, I work alongside Sophie on permanent jewelry, events, and the creative evolution of HEIR, bringing our strengths together to keep building something that feels distinctly ours.
