Leslie's philosophy is that jewelry should make a signature statement, personal statement, meaning much more than just a simple finishing touch. She aspires to create pieces that become a reflection of who a woman is, not what she wears.

"I feel connected to the woman who wears my jewelry and I am inspired by their individuality. My collections are always evolving, as are my customers," says Leslie.

A true designer, Leslie's collections are the culmination of her creative interests, including fashion, home decor, antiquing and the fine arts. As an avid world traveler, rare antiques, vintage wallpapers and historical architecture lend inspiration to her designs.
