About

The Michael Shanks Jewelry Experience is greatly influenced by nature, technology, and history. The company is built on the passion and culture of collaboration and connection.

Born in Carver Ranches (1996), Michael Shanks spent most of his life in the realm of order. He joined the Army at age 18 becoming a Distinguished Army Sergeant of 7 years. Over the years, he learned that circumstances don’t determine who you are or who you can become. After retiring from the Army, Michael discovered making art was his true calling. He chose Jewelry because it is a form of art for self and creative expression. He graduated from Miami Jewelry school and launched the Michael Shanks experience. Michael desires to express himself and tell stories of life through jewelry.
His purpose for creating is to push the limits of imagination and design challenging pieces.
