I was raised in Bay City, Michigan, ever since I was little I have loved figuring out how to make things myself and drawing.

My mom would always take me to thrift stores when growing up and I always loved finding good deals on video games to resell for more at our local game store, that is what started me with resselling.

At 8YO someone got me a crochet kit and my aunt started teaching me how to crochet, I didn’t progress very far but it stuck with me.

When I was 11 I joined my dad's band ( Desiring Dead Flesh ) along with my older sibling and by the time I was 13 we were touring to California.

As time went on we started touring more and eventually decided to make the move into full-time touring living in the van, I was 15 at the time.

It took us a while to get everything situated but when I was 16 my family moved into a renovated van. Shortly after we started touring I got into making jewelry and we would set them out at shows along with the band merch, later on, my significant other got into knitting and re-inspired my interest in crocheting.

Unfortunately, our touring days came to an abrupt end when the pandemic hit.
We were in Florida when we first started seeing articles about COVID-19 before it had made its way to the USA, once we had made our way to California there started to be cases in the USA.

Shutdowns started happening in some locations so we all figured it would be best to head back to Michigan to stay with family until the pandemic had gotten under control.

My dad and I started discussing getting supplies to make studded leather jewelry so we could sell them at the shows.

My Sibling and I both had significant others for a couple of years at this point and were both ready to take the next step in that stage of life, so after a few months of staying with my grandparents I moved in with my significant other and that put a stop to playing in Desiring Dead Flesh for the time being.

My parents decided to keep traveling around but instead of playing music, they are selling handmade studded leather jewelry.

From there, I have been making handmade items and working on where to sell them.

I started selling at Everything Classic Antique in 2023 and I have been working on expanding my online sales!

my eventual dream would be to own a physical store!
