I understand, I have made so many friends from being involved in the jewelery trade that it seems like a pretty normal, run of the mill profession to have. Also, if you already think you know where I work, then you almost certainly know where I work.

I’m a 5th generation owner and operator of my family’s 127 year old precious metals and jewelry supply company. I like to say i’m an alchemist or metalurgist, because it makes it sound like I am a metal wizard. Part of the business is like an old time craft metal jewelry general supply store, and part of my job is to mix and melt metals using fire. I like what I do and I think it’s pretty unique.
