“It's more than a job for me…”

“Because of my passion for precious stones, I pursued a degree in gemology, receiving my Graduate Gemologist diploma from the Gemological Institute of America in 1996. Since then, I have enjoyed the rewarding experience of guiding people through the jewelry investment process.

It's more than a job for me. My love for gems allows me to become as excited about my clients' purchases as they are.

My customers’ satisfaction brings the greatest sense of fulfillment to my work. And their peace of mind is my benchmark of success.

Because of my training, knowledge, and experience with precious gems and high quality jewelry, my clients know they are receiving the best value possible.

When not helping clients, I enjoy pursuing other interests, including co-hosting a weekly radio talk show and volunteer care for birds of prey at a local Audubon Society.

I would value the opportunity to speak with you about how Stellar Gems can take the mystery out of buying jewelry, get you the best value for your money, and actually make the process an enjoyable experience.
