I am an independent jewelry appraiser in Nashville.  I began traveling to Middle Tennessee in 2003 to conduct appraisal clinics and immediately fell in love with the area.  I moved to Franklin, TN and opened my office in January, 2005 where I see clients by appointment.

I have conducted appraisal clinics for Littman Jewelers, Zales, Whitehall Jewelers, Fred Meyer Jewelers, and other national retailers. I apprenticed under Teresa V. Torguson, G.G. of Accurate Gem Labs, Inc., Portland, Oregon for six years.  Teresa’s detailed and comprehensive approach to appraising is the model I use in my work.

I am truly independent; I do not sell or buy jewelry.
