Amarette graduated from the University of Oregon with a B.A. in Fine Art. She then went on to study at Oregon College of Art and Craft, completing the Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in Craft.

Amarette is currently living her dream, working independently to produce fine craft and art objects. The Andiamo jewelry line satisfies her desire to bring finely crafted, unique, colorful jewelry to a wide audience. Other, more one-of-a-kind work fulfills her need to be constantly exploring, experimenting, and innovating. Above all, Amarette loves to play with material, pushing the boundaries of what we can expect to accomplish in a given medium.
