After modeling in Paris in the early 1980s, and while on a buying trip for my newly founded antique store, I met Pierre Picard, master blacksmith of Picard Atelier. Overwhelmed with the beauty of his work, I decided to leave the antique business and founded Ironware International, Inc. In addition to serving as President and CEO, I design much of the lighting and furniture now offered Ironware. Drawing from my experiences with European culture and worldwide travels, I have tried to develop a distinct design sensiblity.
