About Me
I first learned to throw on a potter’s wheel in China—oddly appropriate for this South Alabama girl raised on Chinese porcelain, cloisonne, and 1970’s faux-Asian faux-ink art work in the homes of my childhood. After that trip at age 15, I practiced on the wheel here and there for about 7 years until finally taking a full wheel-throwing course in my last semester of college.
I graduated with a degree in Art History in 2012, received a potter’s wheel as a gift, found a used kiln, and set up in my dad’s old workshop, making pots on the weekends and answering phones during the week. In 2014, I moved to Huntsville and began sharing a studio at Lowe Mill Arts & Entertainment where I worked for six years. In 2019, I began the process of building out and moving into a private home studio, where I’ve been working ever since.
My hope is to make pots that hold a little bit of the magic I found growing up in the woods and along the riverbanks of Alabama.
You can find my work here in my online shop, as well as at markets and festivals around the region. Thank you for visiting my website!
