The Heart Behind Wild Gemini
Handmade with love, from Tampa, Florida
Hi, I’m Jellisse
I’m a proud female Gulf War veteran and the founder of Wild Gemini — a handmade jewelry brand born from passion, creativity, and a love for all things eclectic and beautiful.
Based in Tampa, Florida, I create one-of-a-kind pieces for the free spirits who wear their identity proudly.
My Story
My journey into jewelry making began in 2003 with a single free class and a spark I never saw coming. I fell in love instantly — with the process, the creativity, and the pure magic of creating something beautiful from nothing.
After serving my country in the Gulf War, I found healing, joy, and purpose through the art of handcrafting jewelry. Each piece I create carries a piece of that journey — the resilience, the beauty, and the freedom that comes after sacrifice.
Wild Gemini is my heart’s work. It is where military discipline meets bohemian creativity, and where every bead, wire, and stone tells a story.
“Every piece tells a story. I make jewelry for the free spirits — the colorful souls who wear their identity proudly and refuse to blend in.”
What Makes Wild Gemini Special
Every piece in the Wild Gemini collection is truly one-of-a-kind. I don’t do mass production. I don’t do cookie-cutter designs. Each creation is handcrafted with intention, using carefully selected materials that speak to the soul of the piece.

From Veteran to Artisan
Serving in the Gulf War taught me precision, resilience, and the value of showing up fully for everything you do. I bring those same values to my craft every single day.
Wild Gemini is more than a jewelry store — it is a creative sanctuary, a celebration of individuality, and proof that reinvention is always possible.
Thank you for supporting a veteran-owned, woman-owned small business. It means the world to me. 🌸
