I love making things - all kinds of pretty things! My work is inspired by my love of nature - especially the ocean, mountains, flowers, and the sun.

I started working with clay in 2019 after taking a course at Merritt Ceramics near my home in Oakland. My clay practice really took off when a friend lent me her wheel and suddenly I had a home studio and I was hooked. Working with clay has taught me patience, mindfulness, and willingness to not be attached to the outcome (though it's rewarding when I love the outcome!)

I also love photography, macrame, embroidery, knitting, watercolor, and basically any other craft I get my hands on. My craft obsession truly took off in the early days of the pandemic - social isolation led to a lot of newfound desire and talent for making things.

Thank you for being here - it is an honor to share my work with you as an emerging artist. Thank you for your support.
