This week’s Customer Spotlight goes to Tracy Tayan Designs in Chadds Ford, PA!!

Tracy’s passion for jewelry—or obsession as my husband might put it—comes from aloha and ohana. She tries to create unique, personalized keepsakes that signify ohana and spread aloha.

Growing up in Hawai’i, you learn that “aloha” means so much more than just hello and good-bye. It means affection, peace, compassion and mercy. It is a way of life. For Tracy, aloha is the foundation of everything that she does, from waking up in the morning to crafting jewelry.

Another concept that she incorporates into her jewelry from Hawai’i is “ohana,” or family. Even if you are not related by blood, you are still ohana to close friends.

Tracy’s travels have taken her along a winding journey, both as a person and as an artist. Following ohana and living aloha, she has resided in four states, obtained multiple degrees from six universities, including a master’s in education, and her artistic medium has evolved through the years.

Tracy loved being a teacher, but thinks she enjoys being a student even more. She currently resides outside of Philadelphia with her husband and a daughter who is an artist in her own right, beginning her own journey.
