Melissa Kaye received an undergraduate degree in computer science and engineering from MIT and then a master’s degree in computational finance

After working as a quantitative strategist at Goldman Sachs for 10 years, she decided to take a different direction and pursue a lifelong interest in jewelry.

Melissa Kaye Jewelry is crafted in New York City, in 18k gold with diamonds and other precious stones. With an emphasis on quality of construction, her collections feature pieces that are chic and current, yet designed to remain timeless. Each piece stands on its own and is also intended to be layered with other pieces in the collection.
