Jodi's deep rooted Italian heritage serves as the footing for her creative, rustic style embodied in all of her creations; she grew up in a household blessed with love and creativity. Every family member was in constant motion working in the garden, sewing, cooking and pursuing their creative spirit. This loving environment led to a degree in design with an emphasis on ceramics at UCLA.

It wasn't until she spent a spontaneous year in Breckenridge, Colorado did her inspiration for jewelry design surface. Many years and a multitude of experiments later - all of the sanding, cutting and tumbling antlers have led to a dazzling array of jewelry products that have been featured at both the Grammy and American Music Award shows, Dallas' infamous Cattle Barron's Ball benefitting the American Cancer Society, Nordstrom's trendy new website- HAUTELOOK.COM, and now her most exciting endeavor with the catalog company Arhaus and Arhausjewels.com. Jodi's virtuous designs exhibit a lifetime worth of experiences and each piece makes you feel the many emotions that contributed to the influence of the design. Come and experience the beauty of shed antlers.
