I've been playing with clay since the first time I set out to collect mud from my grandma's garden to build a tea set for a party I was hosting later that afternoon...I was four or five at the time.

Now a half-century later, my hands still feel most at home when they're covered in a thin layer of clay, whether throwing, hand-building, or sculpting.

My designs pull from my memories of grandmas and grandpas, gardens, flowers and family gatherings...I believe when you create something from a place of joy and laughter, it shows in the art itself!

Growing up with an appreciation for flowers and gardens, it's no surprise that floral and fauna take center stage in my pieces, giving them a decidedly feminine feel with a clean, modern air.
