Contestant's Case to Win

Coming from a family of small business owners, I think I was always destined to own my own business. It wasn't until I got a Masters and learned how to work with metal that I knew what type of business I wanted to own.

Since 1998 I have designed and produced a line of the jewelry from my home based studio and have a faithful following of private collectors, museums, boutiques and galleries that carry my work.

Cassavoy & Co. should win because, I have built a business in an industry where I had no connections and even in this trying economic time, have been able to maintain a strong clientele who value my pieces and consider them to be beautiful and yes, glamorous.
