I began my work in ceramics as a teacher's assistant for children's clay classes at a community art center in Summit, NJ, while in high school. I sat down at the wheel, made a huge mess, and was hooked. I continued to focus on clay while an art major in college, and then continued to make work while beginning my career as an art teacher in Minnesota, then New Jersey. I am now happily potting when I'm not in the classroom.
