Hello! I have belonged to another forum for a while now, but am expanding my horizons a bit!
I started out as a collector of rocks as a kid, and it soon turned to the more shiney gemstones as I grew up. After receiving a degree in health science, I found myself moving towards the rocks once again, and joined the GIA to become a graduate gemologist. I am 2 classes away, and now own my own gem and mineral business (so much for healthcare huh?). I love traveling around the country meeting the wonderful people in the trade. I have recently started digging for my own minerals and have been to AR mining for quartz, and of course diamonds (although quartz was a little more productive) just as a fun side hobby.
I am happy to be on this board and can't wait to get to know everyone!
