ABOUT GERGANA MCGAHAN
About MeHi, I’m Gergana — a certified Jewelry Appraiser with a passion for beautiful craftsmanship, precision, and helping people understand the true value of their treasures.I currently work at Menashe & Sons Jewelers in Seattle, where I appraise fine jewelry, gemstones, and precious metals for insurance, resale, and estate purposes. My work combines gemological expertise (GIA-certified) with attention to detail and a deep respect for each piece’s history and uniqueness.Before diving into the world of gemology, I spent over a decade in marketing, branding, and business development, working with global names like Danone and Revlon, as well as running my own companies in web design and promotions. That experience taught me how to connect with people, build trust, and bring creativity and strategy to every project.I’m naturally curious, love learning new things, and enjoy bridging my background in marketing with my current work in the jewelry industry. Whether it’s appraising a family heirloom or building a brand, I care about doing things thoughtfully and with integrity.Let’s connect — I love meeting people from all walks of life and sharing stories, ideas, and opportunities.
