I first connected with ceramic art through the Archie Bray Foundation in Helena, Montana and it’s many influential Master Ceramic Artists such as David Shaner, Ken Ferguson, Peter Voulkos and Rudy Autio. These people and classes inspired my life long love of ceramic art and I followed that muse by studying art at: Antioch College, Yellow Springs, Ohio; The University of Montana in Missoula where I received a BFA degree; and further study at The University of Alaska in Fairbanks.

With other college degrees in Social Work and Business Administration, most of my employment has been in the field of Human Services.

When the opportunity arises I enjoy sharing my love of ceramics through instruction. I taught art in Bethel, Alaska in the Junior and Senior High School as well as ceramics at the Kuskokwim Community College.

My work is shown locally in the Olympia area and regionally. Pieces have been accepted into juried art shows through the Olympia Art League, and the South Puget Sound Community College annual juried art show.

My art work is competitive in the arena of contemporary ceramic sculpture.
