I have chosen metal arts as my medium of expression for inspirations I derive from the natural world that surrounds my home in Mill Valley, California and from my travels around the world. My work is in silver, gold, precious and semi-precious stones and colorful enamels. I was born and raised in India where I grew up in the countryside in the province of Bihar. Many hours in my day were filled with discovering beauty and design in nature which continues to inspire me and is reflected in my jewelry.
