Clay has been in my life since studying ceramics in college, but after getting graduate degrees in social work and non-profit management/urban planning I pursued a career in community service in New York City and San Francisco until my two children were born. Even while doing that work, I always worked with clay on the side—working in private studios as well as annual workshops in New Mexico studying with Native American potters. My community development work exposed me to many different cultures, neighborhoods and ways of life and really helped to hone my observation skills which I use regularly to influence and inform my clay design work. After my kids were born, I worked doing more sculptural work combining my love of collecting found and vintage objects and clay. After eating in a restaurant that used handmade plates, I felt motivated to move my work to a more functional place. But I wanted to bridge the concept of a “work of art” with something completely useable—and there was born creating one of a kind handmade tableware.
