Custom Morganite Brooch A Vision in Bloom

This bespoke brooch was commissioned by a private collector who requested a one-of-a-kind statement piece. I curated a selection of award-winning gemstones, ultimately selecting an extraordinary 40+ carat custom-cut Fireburst Morganite as the centerpiece.

The moment I saw the stone, I envisioned the elegant curve of a Calla Lily—its graceful form echoing the gemstone's brilliance. I shared this vision with master jeweler Michael Barin, who brought it to life through a fully hand-fabricated, sculptural design.

The final piece was a celebration of collaborative artistry, imagination, and craftsmanship. Our client was over the moon with both the concept and the execution—a true heirloom born from shared vision and design intuition.

Bridging Creativity and Cash Flow

Invoice factoring is a far cry from the creative industries where I’ve spent much of my career—storytelling, branding, and designing experiences that resonate. At first glance, it felt like a stark contrast. But the deeper I looked, the more I realized: creativity isn’t limited to art. Creativity is the ability to give shape to ideas, to give voice to a business, and to create clarity where there is confusion.

In the world of invoice factoring, I found a new kind of creativity—one rooted in intention, integrity, and transformation. I helped businesses, especially in service industries like trucking and staffing, find their voice. I created narratives that expressed their value, built trust, and helped them grow.

Whether through brand messaging or financial strategy, my commitment is the same: to help clients, their customers, and their communities thrive—with clarity, connection, and purpose.

The Origin of Hoofbeats Are My Melody

Hoofbeats Are My Melody was born from a promise—a promise made by my daughter at the age of 17, when she began her creative journey and encountered obstacle after obstacle. She had a deep love for horses, fashion, art, and supporting small businesses, but quickly learned how challenging it can be to merge these worlds. From securing property permissions to managing the high costs of horses, photography, and production—every step required grit and heart.

After completing her first self-funded project, she made a vow: to create a space where other creatives wouldn’t have to face the same barriers alone.

With the venue support of Romo Performance Horses, she was able to provide her own four horses, a vision, and an open heart to establish a sanctuary where creativity, self-expression, and community thrive.

Today, Hoofbeats Are My Melody is more than a project—it’s a safe haven for artists, storytellers, photographers, designers, and dreamers. One horse at a time, one story at a time, we provide a place where creativity runs free.
