I grew up in Washington, DC- a town that neither southerners nor northerners claim as their own- but with a culture firmly rooted in both. Having fallen in love with the south living in Memphis during college, I now live in New Orleans with stops in Richmond and Savannah (and Chicago, and Detroit) in the interim. 

I have been exploring form, function, and design through any media I could get my hands on since I was a child. I’ve worked in clay, enamel, metals, glass, photography, and painting to name some- I have love challenging the limits and expectations of the media with which I work. 

I embrace the intersection of art and craft with the knowledge that they can, in fact, be interchangeable. 

In my exploration of clay I use myriad techniques and materials to manipulate pieces in hopes of creating something new and unexpected. I create vases and bowls by hand, rather than more traditional wheel thrown forms. And I use underglazes, glazes, and clay to create whimsical or trompe l’oeil forms. I push traditional slabs towards organic wiggly designs and utilize coils or pinch techniques to build refined and precise work. 

I have yet to find the limits of clay, and continue to push myself towards new designs and processes in both functional and sculptural works.
