My life and work's journey took me all over the country and allowed me to live in some spectacular places. I find that my inspiration for the images you see on the pieces I make comes from my surroundings and the inspiration behind the forms you will see with my work comes from a sense of purpose.

My passion is to create one of a kind pieces that people are going to want to incorporate into their daily lives. I want my pieces to be the ones that you reach for in the morning for your coffee or that you set your bar soap on after being in the garden all day; I want my pieces to be a part of your .

I have been making pottery for almost 30 years. I have a studio at home and I teach ceramics at the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts. There is a duality in what I make, whether it is a simple bowl or a vase. There is a quiet grace or beauty in the simple lines of the form or the landscape of its surface. Function and art together. I primarily make my pots out of porcelain. I fire my work to cone six and cone nine using electric and gas and sometimes wood in the Anagama kiln at the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts.
