Artist · Software Engineer · Creator

Being creative has always been a passion of mine, whether it be through art, dance, or crafting.

I started handmade by jaida because I wanted a place to share that work honestly with no mass production and no shortcuts. Every piece I make is something I put real time and care into, and I want the people who receive it to feel that.

Outside of creating, I am an Iowa State University Alumna. When you support handmade by jaida, you are supporting someone who genuinely loves what she does and who makes every piece with you in mind.
