Interview & Italy travel tips →

Recently, I was interviewed by Marji De Las Alas from Vuela about my work as both, a jewelry designer and a marine biologist. She also asked me to share some tips about the Italian region of Umbria where my parents live. So, here it is. Enjoy!

An interview for Vuela about my marine biology + jewelry work, and my time in the Umbrian countryside. In the pics, I wear a floral Sissel Edelbo dress (pic on top), a Lemuria dress in sand color in the town of Solomeo restored by Brunello Cucinelli, and a striped ME+EM top (pic on bottom)

The layered jewelry look

I don’t usually post many pictures of myself wearing my eponymous handcrafted jewelry but I couldn’t resist to share this colorful pic shot in Los Angeles. Here, I mixed and matched several pieces from my textile and metal jewelry collections. I believe it’s always best to overlap long and short necklaces for a different look with a bit of edge. Bracelets and rings must be original and… they need to make a statement! As always, one can see the influences of nature in my handmade work.
