About the Potter


I live in the small town of Boiling Springs, N.C. with my husband, Heath. I had my first experience with clay in 2001 at Gardner-Webb University. I signed up for Intro to Ceramics just to fulfill a requirement for my art minor. I started the minor because I liked to draw but thought I would hate working with clay. At the end if the semester, I still wasn’t making anything especially beautiful, but I was hooked. After graduating in 2002, I took a part time job to support myself and spent the rest of my time in the pottery studio. Later, I worked as an assistant at Rising Sun Pottery, a teaching studio in Lincolnton,N.C. There, I helped maintain the studio, taught classes, and practiced my pottery. Now I have my own studio at home in my own backyard! I have been working there about a year and the garage is continuing to fill up with more pots!

I specialize in pottery that is intended to become an integral part of everyday life. All of my pottery is made by hand, mainly on a potter’s wheel. The pieces are made to be strong and durable with thick rims and sturdy handles.
