In Seattle Anthony worked in trade shops for a few years until 1978 when he chose to supplement his income by fishing in Alaska. “I quit in 1989 after staring death in the face four different times”.

In 1989 Anthony with his new wife Elizabeth moved to Ocean Park, Washington and opened a custom design jewelry gallery. For twelve years Anthony designed and created one-of-a-kind gold jewelry that evoked the feeling and flavor of the Pacific Northwest coast.

Twelve years later Anthony & Elizabeth came to Puerto Vallarta for a vacation “and that did it.” “From the beginning we both just fell in love with Puerto Vallarta. The people and the surroundings are very magical.” Now 2 years living here full time with their 5 dogs and a Parrot, life is wonderful. “I feel very lucky to live in this place that gives me so much inspiration for designing and adds a beautiful quality of life to me and my family.
