Faith, Art, and Meaning in Every Stone.
Explore gemstones not just for beauty, but for their divine design.
Gemology & Jewelry
I identify, grade, and evaluate diamonds and colored stones, bringing both technical rigor and respect for each stone’s story. Every gem and piece of jewelry carries history or potential relationship; my role is stewardship—whether through inspection, consultation, or secure courier services. If a task falls outside my capacity, I’ll transparently refer you to a trusted partner in my network.
Our Gemstone Services
Verification (“Quick Plots”)
Fast, reliable checks to confirm that a stone returned from a jeweler or vendor matches the original you sent or purchased.
Inspection & Grading
Detailed assessment of diamonds and colored stones with clear grading summaries to verify quality and authenticity.
Remote & Transit Items
Inspection and evaluation of items sourced from pawn shops, auction houses, distributors, private residences, or sent via mail/ courier.
Supply & Sourcing
Access to a vetted network for colored stones and moissanite, plus a curated small inventory of select gems.
Partner Services
Coordinated offerings with Carroll’s Jewelers: appraisals, estate and newly marketed jewelry, watch work, bench services, and machine engraving.
Secure Transport
Disciplined, verified handling and delivery of valuables—backed by professional stewardship and accountability.
I earned my Graduate Gemologist (GG) certification from the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) in May 2025. Currently (3rd/4th quarter 2025), I am expanding complementary skills in bench jewelry, stone setting, and appraising to better serve your needs.
Through my ongoing collaboration with Carroll’s Jewelers, I am also beginning to develop basic bench jewelry capabilities and can facilitate machine engraving. I’m committed to stewarding your time and valuables with diligence and care.
