About

I fell in love with pottery the first time I touched clay in high school. Many years ago, in my early twenties, I completed a mentorship with the incredible potter Sarah Peterson in Boulder, Colorado. It was during that time that I truly began honing my craft.

I love every aspect of ceramics—from throwing clay to developing my own custom glazes. There is something deeply rewarding about working with the elements of the earth and bringing a vision to life with your own hands. But the greatest joy comes from seeing others incorporate my pieces into their daily rituals and knowing that something I created has become part of their lives.

Outside the studio, I find endless inspiration in nature—especially in the beauty, energy, and spirit of Kauaʻi.

A decade ago, I began visiting Kauaʻi several times a year to hike the Kalalau Trail along the Nā Pali Coast, a place I consider one of the most magical on Earth. Eventually, I surrendered to the gravitational pull this extraordinary island had on me and made it my home.

The ocean, surfing, the mountains, and the natural textures and colors of Kauaʻi continually find their way into my work. Everything is intertwined when you take the time to look.

I hope each piece brings a little joy into your life—and carries with it a small sliver of the magic and energy of Kauaʻi.

All glazes used on my functional wares are food-safe and dishwasher-safe unless otherwise noted.
