I was born in the magical city of Lima on April 24, 1980. My father has a small business and my mother was a homemaker. They instilled in me good moral values and a love for school. I spent my childhood having fun with my friends, doing the things children do.

My mother has always enjoyed handicrafts and I was fascinated by the different articles she made. From her, I learned the focus, perseverance and passion for doing what we love in life.

"I've worked with silver jewelry since 2009. At first, I saw it as an opportunity, and learned the crafting techniques. But as time passed, I realized it was more than this, that designing is a way to express art through jewelry. Silver jewelry — and especially filigree — has a special attraction for each person. I feel proud of my work.

"I like to spend my free time visiting places outside the city, reading, or going to the cinema and theater. I like to get away from the city and experience a world that is simpler and more peaceful.

"I consider my work to be something very special. It's like a feeling. Every design that we create is crafted thinking of the person who will wear it. We put 100 percent of our dedication into each piece.

"My motivation is my family. They have supported me, always. I want my workshop to grow and be successful so that they'll feel proud of me.

"The techniques we use and our original designs are our hallmark.

"Like everyone else, I've had tough times in my life. My greatest challenge was definitely when I left a stable job and risked everything to do what I really love. This gives a greater motivation and passion to everything I do. The experience has strengthened me emotionally, and I am completely happy.

"All our work is crafted by hand, which brings an added value to each piece. We create our jewelry with love and joy. We know you'll like our designs as much as we do."

NOVICA was started with a dream to create a better world for artisans, because a better world for artisans is a better world for all.

Along the way, the founders of NOVICA discovered something very important - as artisans around the world succeeded, there was also a visible and profound impact on the communities around them.

Your purchases are that powerful. They directly and indirectly provide for education, help with health care, fund basic needs, support children, preserve disappearing arts, and of course, spread happiness around the world.

The founders of NOVICA had a vision of the future that is not one of mega factories producing cookie cutter products for all to cheaply consume. Instead, a bright future that celebrates artisans who take the time to create an item by hand. A future where time is protected, where stories are told, where unique details are honored. Love, respect, inclusiveness become driving force.
