My functional ceramics bridge the gap between art and function. I love bringing a bit of extra color and whimsy to everyday objects. I enjoy playing with textures and colors in the decoration of my work. I am inspired by nature, vintage and modern textiles, and the printmaking process.

I create my work using both wheel and handbuilding methods. I love the vibrant colors of underglazes, and I use a sgraffito technique to carve through the underglaze, creating patterns and texture. My work is fired to stoneware temperatures and is ready to use for food and drink.
