What is your primary role on the Those Brothers team?
My primary function is to be behind the scenes creating beautiful, unique, and inspiring pieces.

What inspires you as an artist? How are you able to come up with so many new designs?
I'm connected with the universe and to people. When I make personalized pieces, I have conversation with the person I'm servicing. I get to know them and from there I come up with ideas and designs that speak true to who the person is. As for free form art (stock jewelry, designs, drawings, etc.), I simply transcribe reality; whatever I'm seeing currently, want to see in the future, or have seen in the past.

What do you feel is the role of an artist?
The role of an artist is to transcribe the current/past realities of the world; to push a message forward and to promote the evolution of oneself through their art.

How long have you been making jewelry?
I knew jewelry before I knew words.

Who is the person you look up to most in the jewelry world ?
I've always aspired to reach my fathers' level of expertise or higher which is no easy feat. I accredit much of my success as an artist, a businessman, a familyman and a respectable member of society to my father for exemplifying exceptional leadership, tenacity, and love for his family and his community. I would not be the man I am today without his influence and guidance.
