LAINIE means "light," and Brandeis alum (Class of '88) Rachel Goldberger Teichman's LAINIE LINE jewelry lightens and brightens any day. Win a $100 gift certificate for her silver or brass jewelry cast from vintage items and objects from nature -- and candy too! 

Rachel is a woman of many talents and gifts. With a Bachelor of Arts in Studio Art from the University of California at San Diego and an MBA from San Diego State University, most of her professional career has been in the Journalism and Public Relations field as a writer, blogger, and PR executive. She now concentrates on freelance writing and jewelry design. 

With LAINIE LINE, Rachel is now harking back to her love of jewelry making, which she started experimenting with in her childhood and teenage years, making bracelets and necklaces for her friends and family. LAINIE LINE brings together her need for artistic expression, love of language, awe of natural elements, and significance of family to make unique and sentimental pieces of jewelry for all to enjoy.
