Erin's jewelry career began in New York City, where she studied Jewelry Design at the Fashion Institute of Technology and Bench Jewelry at the 92nd St Y. Her experience includes interning with the luxury brand Barry Kieselstein-Cord, where she would hand draw the wax models of their master jeweler and add them to the company’s design archives. While in New York she worked for Metalsmith & Jewelry Designer Serena Kojimoto,  where she fabricated and assembled jewelry and assisted with wholesale and retail shows, including the ENK International Accessories Circuit.  Before moving to Montana, she designed and sold her own line of jewelry featuring silver cast bird bones at the Young Designer’s Market in Soho. 

In Montana, she expanded her skills by majoring in Metalsmithing at Montana State University with a Minor in Small Business Entrepreneurship. Her additional experience in Bozeman included chasing wax models at Northwest Art Casting and serving as the manager at Riddle's Jewelry in Bozeman, where she implemented store-level custom design fabrication with the store Goldsmith. She holds multiple certifications, including GIA Diamond Essentials, GIA Diamonds & Diamond Grading, DCA Colored Gemstone Courses, and the Stone Setting Comprehensive from New Approach School for Jewelers. 

At Gem Gallery, she has enjoyed collaborating and actively contributing to the exclusive in-house collections: Aurum, Imperfectionist, and Reverie. She loves working with clients to bring their visions to life and celebrate their individuality with a custom designed piece.
