  • Jewelry Designer

    • Boise, Idaho Area

    I love anything creative and once I was introduced to the Kumihimo Braid jewelry turned into my passion. I love working with a wide variety of materials - silver, gold, rose gold, ribbon, leather, chain, Swarovski crystals, pearls, wire, even buttons. Right now I am a one woman shop and for now I do everything from concept to creation, and from bookkeeping to setting up showings. But when I attend a show I do have a trusted few who are always there to help. If you would like to see more of my designs please visit www.BzBraids.co. Look for my 2nd line of jewelry for you & your small pet, "Doggie Style By B". You can find a link to that Etsy store below.

  Ideal Market

  • Boulder, CO

  • Receptionist

    • May 1995 - Apr 1998
    • Boulder, CO

    I started out just answering a multi-line phone system, then I was asked to create some recipe cards for an in-store promotion. Everyone was so impressed with the recipe cards they started asking me to create other in-store promotional items and signage. This was the beginning of my graphic design career. Until I started working at this great little market I had gone to school and trained to be a Paralegal/Legal Secretary.
