Meet The Team

Our head of the team Philippa started her jewelry brand over 30 years ago. Philippa Roberts Jewelry is carried in specialty shops and museum stores around the world. She opened the Philippa Roberts store in Oakland, CA in 2006. She’s often found running back and forth between store to studio helping customers find the perfect gift or designing her new upcoming line.

Sandy, our store manager, has been working with Philippa since 2012. When she’s not helping Philippa curate a lovely selection of jewelry and gifts, merchandising the store, or building the calendar; you can find her seeking adventures with her little orange vizsla, Layla.

Cheryl is a retired store manager from the SFMOMA. She walked into the store 8 years ago to say “hello” and here she is, still enjoying the family that is Philippa Roberts. She’s a two day a week store peep. She spends her time off reading, walking, and enjoying friends. Coffee Order: Iced Tea Star sign: Aries |

Naomi started working at the shop in December 2022. As an Oakland native and Piedmont Avenue neighbor, she is delighted to be part of the Philippa Roberts team. It makes sense since over the past 10 years, she’s bought almost all her own jewelry and handbags and gifts for friends and family here! When not at the shop, Naomi stays active working out and dancing to house music and baking pies.

Having bounced around the different facets of the Bay Area jewelry scene for the last 14 years, she’s excited to be here as the newest member of the jewelry production team! If she’s not at home being judged by her perfect geriatric dog for something like opening the window “the wrong way” she’s out collecting rocks and new hobbies, keeping up to date on the latest scams, and feeling compelled to buy the strange potato chip flavors nobody asked for… Drink order: Star sign: Gemini |
