I am jealous of women with manicures because as a potter, I can never keep polish on for more than a few hours. Clay permeates not only my nails, but my home and my life.

Since age 13, through college and arty grad school, my skills in ceramics have evolved and grown to what you see today: gorgeous little pieces adorned with textured patterns you can stare at and touch for hours.

The inspiration for these patterns can come from anywhere- from European lace doilies and henna patterns from India to the traditional fabrics of West Africa & Bali.

My work has been exhibited & sold across the US.

Pieces can also be found in "real life" at:
The Art Exchange, Columbus, OH
Houston Center for Contemporary Craft, TX
Red Star Studios Ceramic Center, Kansas City, MO
