The Artist
My journey with glass began in 1992 when I apprenticed under a master scientific glassblower who had previously worked for Hoffmann-La Roche in Switzerland. Under his guidance, I learned the discipline, precision, and respect for craftsmanship that continue to define my work today.
Over the following decades, I developed my own artistic voice, creating handmade borosilicate glass jewelry. My work has been exhibited and sold through more than one hundred fine craft exhibitions, galleries, museum stores, and cultural institutions across North America.
My collections have also been presented at many of the industry's leading events, including the Museum Store Association shows, New York NOW, the American Craft Council Show in Baltimore, the Lincoln Center Craft Show in New York, the One of a Kind Show in Toronto, Signature Craft Shows, and the Salon des métiers d'art de Montréal.
For nearly two decades, I also operated my own retail gallery, where he developed a loyal clientele while continually refining his craftsmanship and artistic vision.
My work has received professional recognition through awards, grants, television appearances, and extensive media coverage. It has been featured in publications including Women's Wear Daily, ELLE, National Geographic, Lonely Planet, and numerous newspapers, magazines, and design publications.
Several years ago, I was introduced to the world of memorial glass. The experience changed the way I viewed my craft. I discovered that glass could become more than a decorative object. It could become a symbol of connection, memory, and love. Today, every memorial piece is individually handcrafted in my Quebec studio using a small portion of cremation ashes.
No molds, mass production, or outsourcing are involved. Each pendant is created one at a time with care, respect, and attention to detail.
My goal is simple: to create meaningful heirlooms that help families keep the memory of someone they love close to them every day.
