Art and the rest of the team at Goodman’s was awesome! I wanted an untraditional wedding ring set and other jewelers tried convincing me out of what I wanted. Art listened and found the perfect option! I couldn’t be happier with what he came up with!

I love Goodman's! They are incredibly professional and confident in their products. We found the perfect engagement ring and wedding bands there before last Christmas. Mine was a beautiful, simple set with small diamonds and textured yellow gold. Everyone has told me they look very polished and vintage. My husband's wedding band is a really slender yellow gold band that he's quite happy with.

The best thing about Goodman's is that you don't have to pay everything up front. You can put an item away and pay a little each month to take the stress out of all those massive deposits you keep writing checks for as you're planning your wedding. We felt very welcome every time we stepped into the shop, and I'm sure we will again when we go back for cleanings!

We purchased my engagement ring, my wedding band and my husband's wedding band at Goodman's, and there's no way we would have gone anywhere else. Because of the unique shape of my engagement ring, Goodman's had to custom-make my wedding band to match it. They did such a great job, and there was very short turnaround between us approving the design and the final product being ready. They are very accommodating of all needs and budgets, and just plain nice people who really enjoy what they do! They were also able to solder my band and engagement ring the day before the wedding, with a two-hour turnaround. It doesn't get much better than that!

My first day at Goodman's was November 23, 1998 and the rest is history. Time flies and I have been at my bench for 25 years. My work style: Precision and NO shortcuts, period.

When it comes to repair work, I run the gamut; simple chain repairs to full heirloom restorations. I am extremely detailed and handle each piece as if it were my own. I take what I do very seriously and respect the trust that people place in me and Goodman's to care for their jewelry. I've learned a wide range of skills over my years and still continue to learn or teach myself new things daily.

One of my favorite things to do at Goodman's is custom creations. My primary method is lost wax casting where I hand carve a 3-D, detailed, wax model for you. I am also skilled in hand fabrication where I build your item from the ground up.

If you haven't been in to see us at Goodman's, come on by. We'd be honored to help in any way we can.

If you've read this far, you may have noticed that John & I have the same last name. That's right, we're related. John is my Dad and it's an honor to get to work with him every day.
