Hello, my name is Steven Brownlee. I am the owner of Brownlee & Company and the director of the Jewelry Creations Workshops, in Miami, Florida. I’ve worked as a professional jeweler for the last 14 years, and worked as a bench jeweler for two prestigious jewelry stores, the latest in the San Francisco Bay Area, Alix & Company. I remember the first time I began working with metal. A friend taught me how to make an intricate chain pattern. I was fascinated, working with my hands, creating amazing things; I soon saw the endless possibilities. I wanted to learn everything there was to know about metal and jewelry. I first started taking classes 14 years ago and have not stopped since. I believe you can never stop learning new tricks and techniques no mater how much you know. I am a graduate of the Revere Academy of Jewelry Arts in San Francisco, California. I am also certified with the Jewelers of America as a Bench Jewelry Technician. I’ve been teaching the art of jewelry making for the last 6 years. I love what I do and I’m eager to share my passion and knowledge with you.
