“I just want adults like me to feel like they have a sense of independence.”

Each piece is created by Sienna, nicknamed Sinny. She was born in TX, weighing a bit less than 24 ounces.

She is one of the fewer than 200 known people in the world with Primordial Dwarfism. She is hard of hearing and also has other rare conditions called Dandy-Walker and Agenesis of the Corpus Callosum, which affect her brain.

Doctors originally gave her little hope, but she is living proof that all things are possible with God!

Like other 26-year-olds, Sienna wants independence. Yet, her various diagnoses prevent her from achieving the independence she desires. Having an identical twin who is experiencing many of life’s milestones only reinforces what she’s missing out on. She feels like she’s stuck between 2 worlds–the Special Needs world and the non-Special Needs world.

Making jewelry gives her a sense of purpose. Turns out she’s really good at it! Her dream is to sell enough jewelry to be able to hire a team of other special needs adults so they, too, can feel a sense of purpose and gain some independence.

Sienna also loves mermaids. Anyone who has met her knows saying Sienna loves mermaids is an understatement.

She and her twin were just awarded a Guinness Book record.
