John Kidd is an aerospace engineer & software engineer with over a decade of experience supporting missions at NASA. He discovered a passion for jewelry making in Tucson. After moving to the desert for college, he found himself drawn to Xerocraft, a local maker space, where he initially sought to explore copper work.
What began as technical curiosity in the machine shop evolved into a deep dive into jewelry classes, where he fell in love with the craft. Today, encouraged by friends and guided by a commitment to quality and storytelling, John creates handmade pieces in copper, brass, and sterling silver each one reflecting the textures, patinas, and earthy aesthetic of the Southwest he calls home.
You can shop his jewelry line in store at Attunement.
