For those that don't know Sam, she's creative, curious, kind-hearted and has a passion for vintage clothing and all things DIY. She came onboard with no jewelry production experience and quickly jumped in and began learning. Over the years, her hard work and perseverance helped her to advance positions within the company. Her positivity and fine eye for details makes her such a natural fit for the team. If you saw her in action, you'd never guess that she hasn’t been jewelry-making all her life.
CMD has grown so much as a company since Sam started and we couldn’t have done it without her hands. It's been amazing to watch her jewelry production skills develop over the years. As my product development lead, Sam and I work closely together as we materialize new concepts and fresh designs.
If you own any CMD jewelry, especially Special Occasion pieces, there's a very good chance it was handmade with love by Sam. Thank you so much for all that you do and congratulations on your milestone, Sam. Three cheers for five years… and to many more!

I didn’t know where I was headed or how it would [...]
