A lot has happened since completing my studies in 2012… And
it’s time to look back and appreciate the opportunities and achievements that
have resulted from the hard work I’ve put into launching my jewellery career...
It was a great honour to receive The Gold and Silversmiths Guild of Australia award for ‘Best
Handskills’ in November 2012 at my Graduate exhibition Kaleidoscope
Soon after, my graffiti inspired graduate work 'Wishing You Had A Graffiti Decipher App?' was chosen to be exhibited
at the Contemporary Australian Silver & Metalwork Award 2013
I was particularly proud of this achievement as I was one
of the 55 artists selected from over 150 applicants to have their work shown
at this prestigious exhibition.

This piece was also chosen to be exhibited at Graduate Metal ’13
another
juried survey exhibition of recent graduates work.
‘Wishing you had a
graffiti decipher app?’ has travelled not only to these two exhibitions in
Australia, it also travelled to China along with another of my Graduate works ‘Stuck on the Train Again’ to be
exhibited in the 2013 Beijing International Jewelry Exhibition
exhibited in the 2013 Beijing International Jewelry Exhibition
"No Mud No Lotus"
Sterling Silver, Titanium.
I was very touched by the video that the customer made when she received my pendant: Instagram Video

Closer to home, another piece of my graduate work ‘Unbound’ was selected to be
exhibited at Contemporary Wearables '13 which is due to tour selected galleries throughout Australia
during 2014

Upon peer review I
was accepted as a Fellow Member of The Gold and Silversmiths Guild of Australia
I feel very privileged
to be part of an organisation that promotes Australian craftsmanship and excellence.
I have since volunteered my time as a National Council Member and developed a Facebook Page for the GSGA to
advance the organisations marketing strategy.
Another exciting thing that happened in 2013 was being scouted to showcase my designs at RAW:Natural Born Artists event Translations
This is a short video of my interview and some highlights from the showcase event:
