Cleo has a Graduate Diamonds Degree from GIA (Gemological Institute of America), and has taken classes at Studio Jewelers Ltd. in NYC. 

Cleo uses previous experience in Printmaking and Ceramics and applies it to her jewelry making. Jewelry processes range from lost wax carving to forging metals. Cleo uses only sustainable recycled metals and natural gemstones. She takes inspiration from the ancient world, mythology, and water.
