I started creating and making jewelry just a little more than two years ago, but it’s safe to say that my jewelry journey started even before I knew it. My mom is a certified jeweler, but she had to sell all of her equipment after I was born and she never came back to this trade, although you could always see her inclination for unique jewelry. I, on the other hand, never knew what exactly my passion was. I tried nearly every possible form of art to express myself—from painting to creating music, from clay modeling to dancing, but I never felt very good at any of this. Anyway, back in my teenage years, I even tried making jewelry, but then I failed miserably because of a lack of information on working with certain metals. I kept trying from time to time, but it was never successful. The real magic happened, as I mentioned, a little bit more than two years ago when one of my friends signed me up for a short introductory course on jewelry making. (I must say, she also signed up herself, but due to a minimal amount of places left, only I got in.) This course gave me only the basic knowledge of working with metal, but that was a turning point I could start from, and I felt like I'd finally found my place.

Since that time, I've never stopped searching for inspiration, ideas, and information and never doubted myself. I've made great progress, and my mother is actually the first to see all of my created jewelry. She, and the rest of my family, are my number one fans.

Many of my works are inspired by nature and Baltic pagan symbols. It’s because, as far as I can remember myself, nature was always essential to me. My happy places were forests and rivers, grass fields and lakes. I felt a little bit different with my passion for nature, which grew up along with me. Later on, in my life, I started to see nature as inspiration—so many flowers, birds, and animals all around us, just waiting to be noticed. So I tried my best to observe everything nature gives us to use it in my works.
