Inspired by my true passion for jewelry, Chantico was born in 2023. I was laid off during the pandemic and I realized that I couldn’t stay home hoping for things to change. It was then when I decided to enroll in Austin Community College to continue my education and completed my GED. I then enrolled in jewelry classes to enhance my jewelry making skills, obtained a certificate, starting developing ideas and took my designs to local markets.

The name Chantico is an honor of my Native roots which in Aztec means Godess of Fire. Much like a Godess, I want women to feel embolden when wearing my jewelry.

Chantico jewelry is thoughtfully created and handcrafted in Austin Tx at my studio.
