Residencies



I've always been a traveler at heart.....brought up camping out of a custom Chevy van from Indiana to California, Indiana to Pennsylvania, Indiana to.......some of my favorite memories are on the road, visiting and learning about new and different places.

So when I realized that clay was the next path, I decided to continue the meandering. My first clay-related travel experience was as a student at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts in Maine, soon followed by a Technical Assistant Scholarship for the following summer. A summer residency at Pottery Northwest in Seattle, an internship at the Lee Arts Center in Virginia.....each experience brings freshness and change to my work and daily patterns.

Currently, I am managing a clay studio at the Capitol Hill Arts Workshop (CHAW) in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Washington DC, dreaming and scheming what my next travel plans will be. Between residencies and wood firings, it's hard for me to imagine staying in one place for too long!
