Portrait of Jarra Angbetic, overlay text “Introducing Gladly Voice: Jarra Angbetic”
Global Storyteller. Gemologist. Tech Founder.
At Gladly, we believe in amplifying voices that carry brilliance and resilience. Voices that merge legacy with reinvention. That lead with both vision and humanity.
Jarra Angbetic is one of those voices.
A Voice Forged Under Pressure
Every stone tells a story.
In gemology, they’re called inclusions—tiny fractures or wisps that reveal a stone’s unique journey under pressure.
To many, inclusions look like flaws. But to Jarra, they’re proof of endurance, transformation, and beauty.
Her own journey reflects the same truth. From the gem labs of Sri Lanka to founding Lumera AI and @jarra_jewels, Jarra has walked a path where heritage and innovation don’t compete—they collaborate. She has built her career at the intersection of luxury and technology, showing the world that brilliance isn’t born from perfection, but from resilience.
“Elegance in evolution. Brilliance under pressure.”
