Lai was exposed to the craft of jewelry making at a very early age. With knowledge and experience gained through this environment, Lai soon began making and designing jewelry of her own. Lai describes her passion for jewelry in her own words: “I work 7 days a week in many different locations, and I love what I do because it is fun for me. I’ve been approached by customers speaking in many different languages. I don’t understand their words but I have been able to understand their meaning because they’re talking about the art that I have designed and am passionate about. I can usually then sketch out what the customers are talking about, which makes my work even more fun.”
