About Me

post

I am a jewelry designer. I am fascinated by the construction of natural objects—how a petal folds, how a chain of flowers holds together, how a form can move.I combine 3D modeling in Rhino and Matrix with hands-on work in wax and metal. I enjoy developing both the visual form and the construction of a piece, taking an idea beyond the initial concept and transforming it into a finished object.

What I Can Offer

01 Custom Jewelry

A one-of-a-kind piece, from the initial concept to the finished object. We discuss your story, and I develop the design and create it.

02 Design & 3D Modeling

Jewelry concepts developed in Rhino and Matrix, with careful attention to structure, mechanics, and how the piece sits on the body.

03 Collaborations

Working with designers, photographers, stylists, and studios on jewelry, editorial shoots, and experimental projects.

04 Professional Opportunities

Open to roles in jewelry making and design, internships, and collaborations with jewelry brands and workshops.

My Approach

01 Research

I explore the narrative, meaning, and visual references behind each project.

02 Form Development

I search for the right shape, form, and mechanism, exploring various ideas through sketching.

03 Method & Making

Depending on the design and its specific details, I choose the most suitable method—whether it’s handcrafting, wax carving, or 3D modeling—and then bring the design to life.

Selected Work

The Nyctinasty

- A jewellery collection inspired by the daily opening and closing movements of flowers

Nyctinasty is the daily rhythm of movement in plant parts, where some flowers open in the light and close as darkness falls.This natural phenomenon forms the basis of a jewelry series where changes in shape serve as the guiding principle for form-making. One ring, featuring movable petals, reproduces the transition between open and closed states, while the other pieces interpret natural dynamics through silhouette, volume, and the arrangement of elements.

The collection was designed using 3D modeling software, and the centerpiece is planned to be crafted in silver.

post

I distilled the movement of a flower down to a single, simple action. A component mounted on a pin rises when rotated, lifting the petals with it. Since the petals are also mounted on pins, they swing upward and open simultaneously. One small turn achieves the entire blossoming movement of the flower.

DAISY MEMORY

- A titanium jewellery set dedicated to childhood memories of a daisy field that no longer exists

post

Next to the house where I spent my childhood summers, there was a large field of daisies, and I used to weave long chains from the flowers. When the land was built over and the field disappeared, I wanted to preserve it in a material object. The childhood chain—where one flower joins the next through a cut in the stem—became the structure of the collection’s centerpiece: the flowers connect without extra fasteners, allowing the jewelry to move with the body and catch the light. The daisy symbolizes memory, the chain represents the link between moments of life, and strong titanium captures their preservation in time.

This project is a finalist in the DAFES CHOICE DESIGN competition, June 2026.

Ashes of Eternity

A jewelry set inspired by ancient ruins, exploring the beauty of imperfection and the traces of time

post

This series is built upon the aesthetics of abandoned ancient forms, where cracks and ivy do not conceal the beauty of columns and sculptures but rather reveal their fragility. Reflecting on the Greek canons, I wanted to discuss the value of natural beauty over the narcissistic pursuit of the ideal. Each piece serves as a reminder of history and the passage of time: value resides in imperfection, authenticity, and the marks left by time, while gloss and flawlessness are an illusion that time will inevitably shatter.
