    I’m in love my new bracelet! I had never heard of permanent jewelry before but I honestly don’t know how this didn’t become popular sooner. It feels so good always having a beautiful piece of jewelry on with no effort every day to pick something out. It’s so lightweight, goes with everything and I am constantly getting compliments. Worth every penny!

    Not a jewelry person at all but I am in love with my anklet. Kim takes her time and makes sure you get exactly what you want. She has the best materials that will last and prices that are reasonable for the great product she offers. 10/10 recommend!!
    Can’t wait to get my next piece!

the story of gene + george

I’m Kim, mom of two — one girl and one boy, who keep me crazy but add all the magic to my life. ✨

Aside from being very family oriented, I’m also a part-time nurse. I’m an empath to the MAX (IYKYK) and thrive on connecting with others, understanding their stories, and finding ways to support them through my work. I’m a lover of lake life, and if I could choose a perfect day, it would be spent sipping tea or coffee (or perhaps a refreshing Fresca or Paloma) on a porch, watching my kids catch turtles, frogs, and fish. The sound of their laughter is EVERYTHING!

My heart lies in the deep conversations — learning all about what motivates you, your fears, your flaws, and how we can all grow and become better versions of ourselves. All the realness.

In my quest to find a way to live a slower life, homeschool my kids AND create a career that I love, I discovered the world of permanent jewelry. It’s more than just a business for me; it’s a way to connect with people and create meaningful pieces that tell their stories—reflecting where they’ve been, who they are today, and the incredible journeys that lie ahead. I may also have two small people assisting me along the way. ☺️

The name GENE + george is a heartfelt tribute to my babies, a constant reminder of my motivation to be better every day. Please join me on this dream! Come share your story with me, and together, let’s create a unique piece of jewelry that will serve as a cherished symbol of your life’s journey. I can’t wait to meet you! 🫶
