Dani started Imagination Run Free as a full-time working mom on the Central Coast who needed somewhere to put her creativity. Growing up surrounded by the ocean, the sunsets, and the easy bohemian energy of the area, she found her outlet in handcrafted jewelry.

Her handcrafted jewelry blends ocean-inspired and bohemian aesthetics, using seed beads, shells, natural gemstones, and recycled glass beads. The work is coastal and free-spirited without being generic, drawing from the changing tides, the colors of the sea and sky, and the kind of beauty that’s specific to the Central Coast.

Her Oceanic Collection features glass beads produced by the Krobo people of Ghana, each one unique, made to evoke the feeling of sea glass. Every piece is built to capture the free-spirited, coastal energy of the place she’s from.
