I have always loved the art of accessorizing! Working in women’s retail throughout high school and college, my paycheck was spent on jewelry first and clothing second.
 
In 1994, while living in Germany, I started making jewelry as a hobby and found that I loved working with sterling silver. Our family of five was given the opportunity to live in Asia in 2004.  It was an incredible opportunity, and one which I cherish. The availability of pearls, semi-precious stones, natural stones and Hill Tribe silver greatly influenced my new designs.  In 2006 our family  repatriated to Colorado. I created a very small, informal business called Half the Sky. Mao once said, “Women hold up half the sky,” an early reference to gender equality.  Within three home shows my  400-piece collection was sold out. I was shocked, excited and unsure of how to continue this business on my own. In 2008, I found a company selling artisan sterling silver jewelry and decided to represent their quality product. The opportunity was great, yet my heart missed sourcing materials, designing and handmaking jewelry! With the encouragement of a dear friend, RockHill Designs was founded in 2009. This business has allowed me to continue to travel, use my creativity, be at home with my children, and later my parents. Our little company has continued to grow and is such a blessing to our family.  

Peter and I believe we are blessed to be a blessing to others.  RockHill Designs brings together my  love of jewelry, people, and creativity with my husband’s 30 years of international business experience to create an exciting new opportunity for women. One which has a positive impact in women’s lives and the communities in which we live. One that is exclusive and requires a passion for jewelry!  I will continue to design & create our Limited Collection and to discover the most beautiful, high quality, artisan designs to be shared with you and your customers.  To learn more and find out if RockHill Designs might be the perfect fit for you, email us at join@rockhill-designs.com.
