Pieces of the world, carried with you.
A collection of handmade jewelry inspired by oceans, islands, and the wild beauty of the natural world. From Fiji sea glass to treasures gathered along the journey, each creation carries a story — a place, a moment, and something beautiful that inspired it.
The Fiji Collection
sea glass shaped by the islands.
There is something beautiful about sea glass — something once discarded, forgotten, and tossed aside can be transformed by the ocean into something worth holding onto.
Along the shores of Fiji, the sea works slowly, tumbling glass against sand and stone, softening its edges over years until something ordinary becomes something entirely its own. No two pieces are alike.
I love that it feels a little like life: what we see as broken, ordinary, or discarded isn’t always the end of the story.
Sometimes, through time, movement, and a little grace, something beautiful is waiting to emerge.

The Black Shark Collection
For the woman who feels most alive near the wild.
She loves the ocean.
She isn’t afraid of what is powerful.
She notices the beauty in things that aren’t meant to be tamed.
This collection was born from my love of sharks and my time on Oʻahu’s North Shore.
There is something unforgettable about seeing a shark where it belongs—moving through its own world, completely wild and completely at home.
And then there are the teeth.
Not white.
Black.
The dark teeth in this collection are fossilized shark teeth, transformed over thousands to millions of years as minerals moved through the sediment surrounding them. Their color is part of their geological story—not the color they had inside a living shark.
That distinction matters to me.
I chose fossilized teeth because I wanted these pieces to celebrate sharks without taking something from a living one. Modern shark teeth are naturally white, while fossilized teeth are often darker because of the minerals involved in fossilization.
So these aren’t teeth taken from sharks in the ocean.
They are pieces of an ancient story.
A reminder that the ocean has been writing stories long before we arrived—and that the creatures living in it today deserve to remain exactly where they belong.
Wild.
Powerful.
Beautiful.
I didn’t collect these teeth in Haleʻiwa. They were inspired by what I experienced there—the North Shore, the ocean, the sharks, and a deeper appreciation for why protecting them matters.
Wear them as a little piece of that feeling.
A reminder to stay curious.
To stay wild.
And to leave the ocean a little more loved than you found it.
HALEʻIWA, OʻAHU
21°35′24″ N · 158°06′50″ W
North Shore, Oʻahu
There’s a certain feeling that begins when you reach Haleʻiwa.
The road opens to the ocean. Surfboards lean outside little shops. The town moves at its own pace, with weathered storefronts, local art, food trucks and the unmistakable energy of a place shaped by the sea.
Haleʻiwa is the heart of Oʻahu’s North Shore—a legendary surf town where some of the world’s most powerful waves roll in during winter. It’s also where my fascination with sharks became something more personal.
