Born into
the jewelry industry, Katharine began work as a sales associate at the tender
age of 14. Definitely a "people person," Katharine establishes a quick
and honest rapport with new clients and is a super saleswoman. Katharine is also
known by her Polish name, Kaska ("Kash-ka"). A quick and accurate stone
grader, Katharine aptly completed her studies at the Gemological Institute of
America earning her Graduate Gemologist degree. A quick study with a sparkling
personality, tenacious and quick witted, Katharine sets a high bar. |

a bright personality, Dana is direct and works well with customers. |
