Alex Woo has been designing jewelry for over six years to much acclaim and success. With her father, a master bench jeweler, serving as her mentor, Alex has grown up learning an appreciation for gems, precious metals and fine craftsmanship.
From studying fine arts and jewelry design at Cornell University, The American University of Paris and Parsons School of Design, to winning the National Women’s Jewelry Association’s design competition in 1998, art and form has always been her passion. Last year she was awarded by a panel of experts from the JCK Show Design Center as one of the Rising Stars for 2006 - one of the most prestigious and coveted accolades in the industry.
Born and raised in New York City, and with her Manhattan showroom and workspace, Alex embodies the spirit and passion of a true New Yorker. She draws inspiration from her travels around the world and admits her most creative moments are found in new locations she visits.
