My ceramic practice is driven by an attraction to organic shapes and textures. I use clay's innate material properties to explore experimental forms, focusing on how volume and surface application can tell a story or introduce an element of the whimsical and unexpected.

With a background in mixed-media sculpture, I am currently challenging my wheel-throwing practice by working at a larger scale and intentionally expanding the vocabulary of my forms and surface treatments. This current body of work is a reflection of that journey and an effort to synthesize my sculptural foundation with the fluidity of wheel thrown ceramics.
