Maya Brenner is a woman of many faces: Mother, wife, jewelry designer, and entrepreneur. She didn’t always want to become a jewelry designer. She was a social worker when she discovered her passion for creating jewelry. What started off as a means off relaxation quickly turned into a full blown, successful jewelry business. Maya has a large celebrity clientele. Her state, initial, and Charm necklaces have been spotted on many celebrities including Nicole Richie, Cameron Diaz, and Demi Moore. Her jewelry has been featured in Lucky, People Style Watch, Oprah, and Seventeen magazine. She published a book called Beaded Jewelry, Create Your Own Style. As if this wasn’t enough, she’s been collaborating with Stella and Dot for years designing and selling an exclusive line of beautiful, sought after delicate pieces. Most recently she was asked to team up with J Crew for a line of initial necklaces and earrings. I was fortunate enough to ask Maya a few candid questions about her life as a multi talented and inspiring woman of many faces.
