Here is a little more about here in her own words from her Etsy shop :
I believe I have had many surprises and opportunities that have brought me to this point in my great life adventure. This is my story........ At a very early age, I started to crochet in the traditional Turkish patterns when other children were playing out of doors at the playground. I made mistakes at first, but now those changes have become my artistic vision.
I studied at the Art University of Istanbul, but before completing my studies I received a great job offer to become an accessories designer for a very large export textile company. I fell in love with all textile supplies, and started to create my own style in fashion which I call Bohemian Elegant Chic.
My life adventure continued in the United States where I had my jewelry business, but also took some more art classes – painting, drawing, ceramics, etc. - at the University of South Florida.
My jewelry is on display in galleries, boutiques and has appeared in art shows in South Florida.
