I love to make things: creating is a joyous process for me. It can be frustrating as hell, but it ultimately brings joy. My ultimate goal is to share that joy with others. I strive to create something that sparks a feeling when you see it.

I have been exploring with clay for about a decade now, but I feel that my “voice” is ever evolving. I don’t want to be boxed in: I am not sure about being a “brand.” I don’t want to be tied to any one thing whether it is a style or “signature” flourish. While I do have pieces I repeat, I want to move freely from idea to idea. I want to remain open to possibilities instead of limitations. I strive to retain the childlike exuberance of working something out and it actually works! That is the joy I want to share with you: that is the example I want to be for the world.

Thank you for visiting my small corner of the world. Please feel free to email me (or sign up for my newsletter with the understanding that it isn’t a regularly scheduled thing: only when I have some news or possibly a new “drop”).
