My pottery practice seeks to create objects imbued with life; I combine my ambulatory forms with bright, colorful glazes to make work filled with fun and funky personality; pieces that may wander off if you look away.

Clay, as a medium, has its own voice. It can be both subtle and loud, and always provides its own input into the creative process. Working with it is a cooperative endeavor; the artist must listen when the medium speaks and gives feedback. In this way, clay feels very alive to me. I strive to make pieces that embody the liveliness that I feel within the clay.

I work out of my home studio, where I utilize both wheel throwing and hand building, as each technique contributes uniquely to my pursuit of lively pottery.
