Marina is a Melbourne based artist and scientist who hand crafts jewellery inspired by Australia’s biodiversity and everyday life.

Entirely self-taught, design came as second nature to Marina who began hand crafting pieces for her friends and family while she was still at school. 

Before hand crafting jewellery, Marina completed a science degree and worked as marine ranger. Her day consisted of conducting tour activities, from rockpool rambles to snorkeling, in marine parks and sanctuaries to educate people about protecting the diverse range of species in our local marine environments.

Her jewellery creations are inspired by Earth’s incredible beauty, which is also why she is so passionate about conserving this beautiful planet.

Her latest collection, Queen Bee has been inspired by an era of collapsing bee colonies to raise awareness into this global epidemic and help shift the view that bees are more than just stinging bastards.
