The society we live in today is constantly in a rush, with most not taking the time to stop and appreciate life. When we fail to pause and notice the seemingly insignificant details of the world around us, we are robbing ourselves of meaningful thoughts and introspections. It is my goal to help with this habit by introducing handmade objects into the rituals of daily life. Through my work, I hope that you will be able to touch, sense, and enjoy the everyday phenomena that we as a society so frequently overlook. , etc.

My work is an exploration of the fundamental process of vessel-making. My pieces are meant to be eaten from, drank from, and served upon. As well as serving a utilitarian purpose, they also tell the story of my own daily rituals involving food preparation and consumption. My surfaces have evolved over time, as a reflection of the places I live and designs that interest me.
My work is a celebration of those, possibly insignificant, but also perfect moments in life- sipping a warm cup of coffee on a cool morning, eating dinner with the people you love most or serving your great-grandmother's famous cake. The objects we use, either on a daily basis or only once in a while, inevitably become part of those experiences. They serve an important purpose in our daily lives, sometimes giving us comfort or allowing us to recall a memory.

Much of my work relies in the interplay of fire and glaze. Using my training as a Scientific Illustrator I'm loosely interpreting images from the natural world, allowing the marks to respond to, and echo the form.

my exploration of ceramics ≤ my study of Φύσιν
i learn the ONLY moment in which ceramics exist is the moment their particles meet
i find i am a momentary mass leaving a trace of entropy for you to eat with
that's exhilarating, thank you

From a young age I felt an affinity for clay. One early remembrance is passing time at my grandmother's house in Hendersonville, NC making animals out of modeling clay and rollerskating in her long driveway overlooking a country farm.
In 1998 I earned a BFA in Fine Art/Ceramics at the University of Tennessee. From school I went on to work within several studios, investigating glaze and form, until finally adding image through print transfers. Influences include George Ohr, Lucie Rie, Beatrice Wood, Georges de Feure.
In 2015, 4 years after returning to clay following a 4 year roller derby pottery hiatus, I registered my business Belle Epoque Pottery, wrote a business plan, and left working full time to strive for partial self-sufficiency through clay. In September 2016 I created and installed "Stone Flow", a ceramic floor sculpture for Toyota America's Office of Government Affairs which took four months to create and over 1000 slip cast rocks. I continue developing my tableware and giftware as "everyday" art, convincing people that handmade is within their means and worth replacing their mass manufactured goods with.
