I am so pleased that you sent me a message and I am even more pleased with your comment! I look forward to sharing ideas with you. Here is something else you'll like; there is one other independent Grad Gemologist / Appraiser in my area. He and I are more colleagues than we are competition.
Stuart Robertson will be speaking at your conference, right? He's one of the folks I most admire in our field (and with a name like that, he must be a Scot, right?). Best, Sue

Yes Indeed, Stuart is speaking at the conference and I too admire him greatly, he and I serve on the AGA Board of Governors and he and Richard are fellow members of AIJV.
I too am looking forward to sharing ideas. Speak soon.

About Me
I'm a full-time, independent, Graduate Gemologist - Appraiser in Middle TN. "Independent" means I don't buy or sell diamonds, gems or jewelry. It means, too, that I am self-employed. I am one of only two, independent appraisers in the area. The other appraiser happens to be terrific and we share information generously.
Working with consumers, which is a good part of what I do, suits me. My clients are wonderful; I often marvel at how lucky I am.

How was everyone's Symposium experience?
This was my first one and was very impressed. Very polished event with some great speakers and workshops.
