Erica's first jewelry collection was created in 2005, after having an illustrious 18-year career as a member of the National and Olympic US Luge Team. Erica competed in the Winter Olympic Games in Calgary, Canada in 1988 and in Albertville, France in 1992. Erica retired from Luge, with no idea of what her next steps in life would be.

Erica then took a jewelry class in 2k granulation, which was very intriguing to her. Not one to sit idle, she immersed herself learning all that she could, attending several classes a the 92nd Street Y. She then apprenticed under a season bench jeweler for 6 years, to obtain hands on experience.

Having no formal training in the art of metalsmithing or jewelry design, Erica has created her own distinctive style with her affinity for jewelry, that is deeply entrenched with meaning. One is drawn to Erica's work not only for it beauty, but for the meaning and symbolism behind each design.
