WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE QUOTE?

-Mark Twain 

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE QUOTE?

“Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered by your old nonsense.“

- Ralph Waldo Emerson 

WHAT IS A DREAM FOR YOUR FAMILY?

A long-term goal for me is to start a nature based preschool in the Asheville area that offers AFFORDABLE childcare with an outdoor/natural learning environment. 

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SOULKU PRODUCT?

Knowing that I can be there for my family, empower other women through the jewelry I make and feed my creative heart at the same time is just amazing! This isn't just a job to me it is a way to connect to others through the pieces I make with love and light because I believe what you put out into the world comes back to you. I feel blessed to work beside so many amazing women and feel supported and held. They light up my life so that I can serve and light others.

WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR DREAMS FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY?

It may sound silly but most days it feels like I'm living the dreams of my childhood... a tight knit family, living close by, spending lots of quality time together and doing what we can to make a positive impact on the world. Someday I'd love to retire on a ranch with lots of horses, help raise some grandkids and soak in every moment possible with my husband along the way.

WHAT DO YOU LIKE BEST ABOUT WORKING FOR SOULKU?

For many years, as a massage therapist and energy healer, gemstones were a daily part of my life. Now, I celebrate the opportunity to indulge my artistic side by getting paid to create fun and inspirational jewelry, with the healing properties of gemstones. This doesn’t feel like work at all!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SOULKU PRODUCT?

My favorite SoulKu product is the Dragon Blood Jasper Touchstone! It's just to die for. The colors and patterns in the stones are just so special.

WHAT DO YOU LIKE BEST ABOUT WORKING FOR SOULKU?

Say, I like SoulKu and ham! 
I do! I like them Mel-I-am. 
And I make SoulKu at the park. 
And I make SoulKu in the dark. 
And in the car. And at a bar. 
And with the kids. And by the sea. 
It’s so good, so good, you see!
I will SoulKu here or there. 
I will SoulKu anywhere!

My SoulKu creations join me as I do life. Before they get to you, the SoulKu pieces I create have joined me as I do my work as a mama. I’m a multitasking master! So, if you’re ever out and about in Asheville, you just might catch me SoulKu-ing somewhere nearby.

WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT WORKING FOR SOULKU?

I get to work alongside a close-knit group of amazing, supportive women. I’m usually pretty shy, but I’ve felt at home here since day one because of how positive the culture is. You can tell everyone genuinely cares about what they’re doing and each other, and I think that’s so special to have in the workplace.
