Alejandra Whittier was born in Puebla, Mexico. In college she studied industrial design and has worked with companies that specialized in furniture and industrial design in Monterey, Ecuador and Puebla. She always had an interest in learning how to make jewelry and started her full time journey when she came to the United States 15 years ago.

Through a lot of trial and error and reading tutorial books, she has now mastered the art of silversmithing and continues to evolve in her jewelry making journey.

“I had worked with metals, worked on big scaled projects and furniture and I knew how to weld things, then to finally learn how to make jewelry. It was a lot of experimenting and willingness to try new things and sometimes that meant failing. But I love wearing beautiful accessories and knowing that each piece has meaning.”
