If we haven't met yet, I'm Aslin—pronounced Usleen, but most people call me Azlyn or Azzy. I'm the maker behind Lu&Lo Jewellery, born into a family of jewellers.

As a child, I spent countless hours watching my grandfather set diamonds in his basement studio. Though I was never allowed to touch anything, seeing those beautiful stones always sparked my curiosity.

Years have gone by, and I took a different path, working a secure corporate job in HR for Canada’s biggest television company. It was a great job, but deep down, it never felt right. So, before the pandemic, I decided to take a leap of faith and start my own jewellery line. Of course, it hasn't been easy, but it was the best decision I’ve ever made.
