I am part of a family of artists and naturalists. I grew up with my great grandparents and grandparents always working on paintings. I am the only potter in the family, but I love adding hand painted elements of nature to my pieces. I took my first ceramics class as an undergraduate student in 2013 and fell in love with the medium. The majority of my work is wheel thrown functional pieces that have hand carved or hand built elements.
I am currently a PhD student in Marine Biology, and I use ceramics as an outlet to express my creative inspiration and expression of the natural world. In 2022, I joined The Clay School after I moved to Massachusetts for grad school. This is my third time participating in the Lydia Pinkham Open Studios event. I am so excited to share more of the ocean art media this year in the form of Algae Presses and photographs I’ve taken while scuba diving or from under a microscope!
