In 1999, after setting up alongside Native artisans and recognizing their need for direct support, I opened a store in Williams, Arizona, retailing their jewelry. Over the years, I expanded by showcasing pieces at craft shows in Phoenix, Scottsdale, California, and even operating stores in Hawaii and Virginia City. In 2017, I returned to Arizona and chose Sedona, inspired by its Native history and copper-hued mountains. Today, it’s an honor to share these genuine pieces with visitors from around the world, knowing each piece carries the spirit of its maker. I also share the stories I’ve gathered over the years, so that every customer walks away with both a beautiful piece and a meaningful connection to the artist.
