I happened upon pottery by chance while attending the University of Northern Colorado, majoring in accounting. A roommate brought a vase home from her pottery class one day & said, 'Here, look what I made'. I held it in my hands & couldn't get over the beauty of the glaze, the satisfying solidity & life the piece had in my hand. & this amazing thing could be made! Even by a Business Major! How wonderful. Needless to say, I signed up for Pottery the very next quarter.



At this point I am supposed to tell you how I dropped out of Business & became a Fine Arts Major - but, no, it didn't happen like that. But...where ever life has taken me, I have continued making pottery whenever I had the opportunity. I have been fortunate to learn from some great potters along my way. Recently, I have been able to spend some time with clay once again, creating some things at home & some things at an open studio in nearby New Orleans, The London Clayworks, where I fire & glaze all of my pieces. My fondest wish would be to one day have a home studio of my own.
