I never set out to be a potter - I fell in love with a material and one thing led to another. Now that I find myself here though, I live with gratitude. And more than a little bit of joy. Coming from a family of accomplished makers, my work is rooted in function. A recent switch to soda fired earthenware aligns my practice more with core beliefs I hold about sustainability. The change in material and firing temperature has also opened new doors technically and aesthetically. In this day and age making ceramic objects by hand seems almost frivolous. That there is room for them at all is amazing, and to be working with a living material in a time-honored craft that meets people’s daily needs is its own reward.
