In February 2021, I embarked on a life-changing journey alongside my sister, Tara. Together, we set out to create something meaningful—a high-quality, innovative, and trendy jewelry line for the Down Syndrome community. This wasn’t just about jewelry; it was about advocacy, awareness, and love for someone very special: Henry.

Henry, Tara’s son, was born in 2016 with Down Syndrome. He quickly became the heart of our family, teaching us invaluable lessons about patience, resilience, and unconditional love. But as we searched for ways to celebrate him and advocate for the Down Syndrome community, we found the options limited—brightly colored silicone bracelets were the norm. We wanted something more, something that truly represented the beauty and uniqueness of Henry’s story.

Around that time, we were inspired by Heather Avis, who branded the term "Lucky Few" with three chevrons symbolizing the three copies of the 21st chromosome present in individuals with Down Syndrome. This symbol of advocacy resonated deeply with us. It became the cornerstone of our designs, featured in jewelry crafted with glass beads, crystals, gemstones, gold, and silver.

Starting this business wasn’t easy. I left my full-time career to pursue this mission, dedicating myself fully to creating jewelry that could inspire others to wear their advocacy proudly. This wasn’t just about fashion—it was about shifting perceptions, sparking conversations, and celebrating the worth of individuals with Down Syndrome.
