Her unexpected introduction to weaving chainmaille took place in 2012. Jean has an affinity for 3D modeling and creating complex, interwoven geometric patterns.

In her chainmaille, she primarily uses stainless steel rings to capture ballbearings, colored glass spheres, faceted crystals, pen nibs and other found objects. Tig welded Unbreakable Hearts from fellow artisan, Nailmaille are a unique focal component in many of her pieces. She has collaborated with Nailmaille on several designs with extraordinary result.

Core77 Industrial Design + Resource has twice awarded Jean for her unique 3D package designs. Her 3D package designs and sculptural planar net designs inform her distinctive chainmaille design aesthetic.
