bio

Born in Southern California now a current resident in Washington State. In 2018 I began my journey with clay by taking a pottery class at Green River Community College. Following those classes, I volunteered at Green River until 2020. In 2019 I had worked at an overnight camp in Becket, Massachusetts teaching ages 7 to 16 ceramics and crafts. For two years I worked with Deborah Schwartzkopf at Rat City Studios in West Seattle till 2022.

Artist Statement

My pottery explores a fusion of memoryscape, intention and vision. Adding pops of color with underglaze to pay homage to the urban LA and Seattle skyline, and using an earthy red and raw clay body represents the Arizona desert. By making my vision come to fruition the goal is to have a place when your day begins, from a hot cup of tea to making a breakfast sandwich on a plate.
