It’s a pretty cool thing to find something you love so much that you go to sleep thinking about it and wake up still thinking about it.

I’d always felt a pull (pun intended) towards pottery. I loved taking art classes growing up, but never had the opportunity to try ceramics. The barrier to entry was so intimidating, and I didn’t know where to start on my own.

In early 2024, a good friend (and incredibly talented artist) gave me my very first pottery lesson. I was hooked immediately.

After that lesson, I quickly joined a studio and spent countless hours watching YouTube videos, trying to learn as much as I could. By the end of the year, I was ready to invest in my own wheel and dedicated the next several months to turning our spare bedroom into a home pottery studio.

Since then, I have spent the last couple of years working in my home studio, developing my style, thinking about pottery nonstop, and constantly creating.

I feel beyond lucky to be where I am today.

Special shout-out to my super rad husband and our 3-year-old daughter. Dylan is the best dad and husband and holds down the fort when I’m in the studio. Our little girl is my number one fan and the best studio assistant in the world. None of this would be possible without them.
