Living a short drive from the Oregon Coast, I visit the ocean every chance I can.  It’s a place I feel at peace, at home, calm, connected.

The life forms that adapt, evolve, and call it home fascinate me. Change is exciting – and natural. It’s one of the reasons why I chose the nautilus shell to represent Shel Designs: it starts small, but builds its home from there, continually growing and renewing itself, beautifully.
