What happens when you’re a serial tech entrepreneur trying to design a custom ring for yourself and find the experience to be outdated and daunting?

You solve that problem by disrupting the jewelry industry with a new business – Gemist - the first mobile app that allows users to design rings and try them on before they buy!

Our guest, Madeline Fraser, is a serial entrepreneur and big thinker who loves creating consumer facing technology that solves a big problem.

Over the past five years she has created and grown multiple start-ups. Raising millions in funding for ideas she believes will make our world so much easier.

Today Madeline is the Founder & CEO of Gemist, a custom jewelry brand that gives you the power to design your own jewelry, offering a 100% customizable experience with options for the cut, setting, metal, stone, color, style, band, and size.

Through its unique “Try-On” feature, the brand will send Gemist rings straight to your home at no cost so you can be sure the fit, look, feel, and experience is exactly what you want before buying.

All stones and jewelry are ethically sourced and handcrafted locally in Downtown Los Angeles.
