ARTIST. DESIGNER. CRAFTSWOMAN. ENTREPRENEUR. VISIONARY.

Raised with a deep connection to the land, Geo spent her early years on a cattle ranch in the high desert of Northern California. You would often find her leading friends on adventures Journeys into the desert, where they would find and collect dead animals and bones. At the age of 11, her family moved to Idaho. She spent summers white water rafting on commercial trips with her father, Dave Handy an outdoor Idaho legend and an antler shed hunting hobbyist. Her mother, Linda Handy, pursued her art as a talented oil painter.

Geo will continue creating jewelry and plans on incorporating new mediums such as silver and stained glass. However, she is shifting some of her focus to develop her original concept in antler lighting that weaves modern design with a rustic feel into elegant room pieces that both inspire and make the space. In an effort to create a more positive impact in the community, Geo is now offering classes to teach others how to work with antlers to make art. She believes that self-expression is the most effective therapy. She is excited to share this with others and see where teaching will take her.
