About Me

Working with clay has always been a passion since I first touched it. I have been bringing together the four elements of earth, water, air and fire to create unique, one-of-a-kind pieces in my Colchester, Vermont studio.

In addition, for over a decade I was a volunteer at the Burlington City Arts Clay Studio, in Vermont from 2010 until 2022, where I oversaw the process, from wheel to kiln, and enjoyed the creative exchange that goes along with being a member of a vibrant local artists space. I'm thrilled to now be an instructor at BCA and teach Intro to Handbuilding classes.

I always enjoy making little pots by throwing them off the hump or smaller pinch pots that I turn into poppies, flowers, or  small hearts.  Most are hand-painted which takes 100s of hours but is pure meditation and worth every brush stroke.

I've lived in Vermont since 1993 with my husband and two wonderful kids, that are now adulting and love coming back to the peace of Vermont. We have 2 entertaining cats - Mae and Bowie who are often featured on my Instagram page - Pure joy!

The photo was my first ceramic barn board tray exhibit at BCA Studios when I kicked off my business in September 2018. Since then my pieces have evolved and I am always exploring and creating new ideas with clay.
