About my work:

Coiled Bread Baskets, a variety of woven bowls, butter dishes, egg plates, and flip flops are just a few of the functional items I enjoy creating. 

Using my husband, Chuck's love to cook, I make pieces for him to place food on.  What a great way to test the functionality of my work and I get amazing new recipes to try.  It has become a wonderful partnership. 

I am fortunate to have my work displayed in multiple galleries across the state of North Carolina which I am thankful to call home.  My first published piece of work was selected for the book "Best Of North Carolina Artists and Artisans".

How I work:

I start with a stoneware clay and fire it to 1800 degrees.  I then mix glazes from recipes tried and true from master potters and fire the work in a gas downdraft kiln to 2340 degrees.

Where I work:

My studio is at my home where I spend nights and weekends working in what use to be a 2 car garage.  During the day I am a Systems Analyst.  I enjoy spending time with my children Jason and Brooke and my two grandchildren Elijah and Kamayah. Studio visits are by appointment and special events.  If you would like to come by call or email me.
