About
I work out of my home studio in Fort Collins and transport my pottery to the Boulder Potters' Guild where it is fired. Chasing unique glaze results and firing in different kilns environments excites me. With Ceramic art there is so much to explore and many paths to pursue. At the guild I experiment with Salt, Soda, in Heavy Reduction, and Oxidation environments.
Film photography was my first creative outlet as a teenager. My father gave me his Nikon F3 and I brought it with me to NYC. Often walking the streets of Bed-Stuy and Bushwish shooting my favorite grafitti writers. It is a passion that I dip in and out of. When my father passed away I inherited his Hassleblad. I captured many great images with it in Hawaii and on travels that I'd like to share. On this site, I will offer limited edition prints from my film archives.
At some point in the 11 years living on Kauai, I became an avid seeker of shells. I'd wake before sunrise. I'd study the tides and swell. Then decide what shoreline to explore. My dad was taken by the ocean and sometime after shells started finding their way to me. Gifts from the sea. When I began creating with clay my work naturally incorporated these treasures. The Hawaiian Shell pottery collection comes from the countless hours spent, and miles walked in search of sunrise shells.
I find great joy in being a mother. Life is wonderfully full. I'm grateful to have found a partner like Corby. He helps in the studio and often we load the kilns together. We are truly a small family business and wear all the hats. So thank you for supporting us and my creative journey.
