is New York–based jewelry designer and maker. Her work is inspired by the
beauties of nature and the worlds of fantasy with a touch of romanticism and the baroque. Some themes found in her work include flowers, trees, butterflies and earthworms.
She has worked for various jewelry companies while simultaneously developing her own vision and various collections. In 2023, Angely was the Recipient of NYCJW’s HERE WE ARE Exhibition Award sponsored by David Yurman. The award provided her the opportunity to create her first
exhibition, celebrating 5 years as a professional jewelry designer.

Join us this Thursday, April 9 at 6 p.m. at Pratt for an in-depth conversation with Shara McHayle, Jameel Mohammed, Lorraine West, and Angely Martinez, moderated by Professor Adrienne Jones. This event is free and open to the public but registration is required.
