Los Angeles, CA--In a world of uncertainty during the COVID-19 pandemic, it can be hard not to focus on the hardships many are having in health, work, and more. To bring inspiration and community through colored gemstone jewelry, Omi Privé in May announced a special COVID-19 Superhero Giveaway to honor our nation’s healthcare workers and give one random winner a sapphire and diamond pendant.

Nominated by her mom, Angela, she has continued to go into work and care for her patients throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, while also being involved in COVID-19 screening for the public and in helping to coordinate testing throughout the state. While she works, her husband has been caring for their two-year-old at home.
