I had the honor of meeting and sitting down with Andy on a December 2023 trip to Utah. It was amazing to step foot into the Sunstone headquarters. I love what Sunstone is doing in the permanent jewelry community. Not only creating the best welders out there BUT the education and the role they have taken in supporting and improving the permanent jewelry world is so necessary as this industry continues to expand and evolve.Â
If you have not booked your ticket to the PJX in Las Vegas this coming June 2024, you don't want to miss out. We touch on all the amazing vendors and education and what is different this vs. last year.Â
