About Me
Born & raised on the east coast of North Carolina and living in South Florida for most of my adult life, I have always been inspired by the ocean and the plants & animals on the coast. I was born into a family of artists - from tattoo artists, seamstresses, painters, chefs, authors, crocheters, painters & more - the women in my life inspire me more than anything. I grew up with the instinct & passion to create - graduated from East Carolina University with a degree in Fine Arts and a concentration in Metalsmithing and Jewelry Design. I was lucky enough to learn from some amazing instructors and met the most talented community of artists and friends.

The Squid Shop was named after my childhood dog who we loved + miss so much
