I am a ceramic artist and teacher with over 30 years of experience. My main love is the potter's wheel but I enjoy handbuilding just as much! I encourage students to remain open to changes, embrace them, and look for lessons in both successes and failures.
With my work, I’m really interested in how we form connections, and where those lead us, in this present moment. Aside from my own explorations in functional and sculptural vessels, I am known as a drum-maker.
