"In my practice I create individual, high-fired ceramic tableware and hand built sculptural pieces.

As a maker I am interested in every part of the ceramic process. I enjoy the plasticity of clay and the flexibility it allows while creating. I look for the evidence of clays pliability and softness in a finished ceramic piece. This evidence of the handmade can connect us to those who have made the object."
