What is your favorite piece in your collection? My signature piece, and the one I personally find myself wearing the most, is the Diamond Pendant. Like most of my jewelry it's made through a process called lost wax casting, which is a very old (and very cool) metalsmithing technique. I carved a model of the pendant from wax, created a mold, and poured the metal myself to make first piece. It's a solid bronze diamond that hangs on a long, 14k gold-filled chain. I swear to you, it enhances every outfit. A lot of my ADPi sisters own this necklace, which I love. Tell us about working for Harpo Studios and the Oprah Winfrey Network and what kind of content you're managing and producing. I've worked for Oprah on and off for about 10 years now. As a digital producer I write and edit content for the website, Oprah.com. When I first began in my early 20s, I worked on digital content for The Oprah Winfrey Show, up until the very last episode. It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime job experience. Now, I work for the Oprah Winfrey Network— and instead of one show, we support an entire network of shows, even though the mission and core values for Oprah.com have remained the same. The digital world, on the other hand, has changed dramatically over the past decade (understatement of the century), so it's been interesting to grow alongside that. What can we find you doing in your spare time? My other job title is mom, so all my spare time is spent running after my two-year-old twin boys, Archer and Graham. They're bonkers!
