About Jessica Santander

Hi there friend! Welcome to our vibrant handmade jewelry business based out of Tampa, FL where my purpose is to inspire you to seize the opportunity in the everyday to believe more in yourself and that's where my jewelry comes into the picture! Growing up, I had the front row seat to the blazing passion behind my Latin Culture with my parents immigrating from Brazil and Colombia. Long story short- my dad met my mom in Rio while on a work trip and knew she was the one and 1 year later, I was born in the very chilly Rochester, NY. You can imagine growing up in the North East with longer winter season, our family spent majority of the evenings catching up on our favorite telenovelas. This is where a magical new beginning took place when one day I saw a young actress on the T.V. screen and was mesmerized by her character. I turned around to my mom and said " I'm going to be an actress one day, mom." So, yes, I tried to pursue the journey as an actor when then the decision of what to study for college and where took place. Fear took place and I stopped believing in me, in my dreams. 2018 was the year I said enough, and started my jewelry brand to help others to never say no to their self-belief, let alone their imagination! Fast forward to today and our storytelling designs have been featured on NBC Tampa, NBCNY, women entrepreneur podcasts, BuzzFeed and more. I'm so happy to have you as part of jewelry community that's re-shaping the beauty of womanhood and dreams! Read their story
