How Caitlyn Minimalist Began

Creating jewelry has forever been a passion of mine.

I got my start in the industry by creating high end jewelry but things shifted when I went away for college. I took a letter that my grandfather had written and designed a necklace as an exact replica of his handwriting. The necklace was beautiful and something I could wear everyday while providing me some comfort knowing he was nearby.

The amount of attention the piece received from my friends and family was astonishing. Everyone started inquiring about having a special piece of jewelry created that was personal to them, except my friends were all college students and couldn’t afford expensive jewelry.

It was then that I realized where I wanted to shift my attention: creating sentimental jewelry at affordable prices.

Around that same time, I met Mike. From the very beginning, he believed in the vision and saw what it could become. He jumped in fully, helping pack orders late into the night, responding to customers, and dreaming big right alongside me. His support gave Caitlyn Minimalist the wings it needed to grow beyond our tiny living room and into something so much more.

Together, we built Caitlyn Minimalist as a brand rooted in love, memory, and meaning. Our pieces are made to honor the people and moments that matter most, just like that first necklace I made all those years ago.
