About Me

My Background
Without ceramics, I would not be alive. That’s not to say I would not be physically breathing; What being alive means is that to me, I only truly began my life when that first piece of earth was placed so carefully in my hands. For me, being an artist is not a decision. An artist is simply who I am.

Without ceramics, I would not be alive. That’s not to say I would not be physically breathing; What being alive means is that to me, I only truly began my life when that first piece of earth was placed so carefully in my hands. For me, being an artist is not a decision. An artist is simply who I am.
I have studied at the University of the arts in Philadelphia where I received my BFA. From here I traveled to Japan to study at Keyoe Gama Gallery and Studio and continued to work on improving my skills as an Artist. In 2013 I started my Masters at University of New Mexico where I graduated in 2016. Since graduating with my MFA I have continued to show my work in many Galleries and Museums including the American Museum of Ceramics in LA, California.
My Medium
My Inspiration
My Background
Clay is my primary medium and it allows me to bring my ideas to life. Through intricate carvings and different textures, my pieces become strange artifacts of an alien sea. They represent the microscopic but ominous struggle where cellular building blocks cannot exist one without the other.

The ocean is where all life began. The ancient connection between water and sunlight is what gave birth to the first organisms. The vast biodiversity of a single reef is enough to take one’s breath away. Each plant and animal works together in an ecosystem, creating communities that coexist with one another. It is a mutually beneficial
The ocean is where all life began. The ancient connection between water and sunlight is what gave birth to the first organisms. The vast biodiversity of a single reef is enough to take one’s breath away. Each plant and animal works together in an ecosystem, creating communities that coexist with one another. It is a mutually beneficial arrangement that results in visually rich environments where form, texture, color, and movement stimulates the senses and inspires the imagination.
Evolution is the key to survival, and It is incredible that without even the smallest plankton life would not exist and through influences those first microscopic organisms have become millions of different species. My work is a reflection of this, manifesting itself into a theoretical evolution that is rooted in the recognition and appreciation of the natural world.
