Clay arrived later in my life. A friend, Jennifer, asked me if I would be interested in learning to throw pottery. I decided to give it a try…and was immediately consumed.

After graduating with a B.S. in Dance, I worked as an instructor and choreographer most of my young adult life. Later, I shifted focus to tutoring math. Then came writing children’s books about love and kindness.

Although writing, geometry, and dance are related through their core of creativity, there was something I didn’t know was missing.

Clay.

My work has been influenced by nature and the subtleties of everyday life. I am happiest when I'm in my backyard or lying next to the sea, surrounded by the magnificent sights and sounds of nature.

With my ceramic work I try to mimic what nature does so easily: make something that is satisfying, useful, functional, and inherently beautiful.

I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy making it for you.
