Home Studio in Hartland, Vermont
About
I have the great fortune of doing what I love for a living. I aspire to make the best possible pots I can that are useful and comfortable. I live in Hartland, Vermont where my husband, Ira, and I are are turning a horse facility into our home and studios while raising our two kids. It is a great adventure and I find living in the country to be endlessly inspiring.
I graduated with a BFA in Ceramics from the Maine College of Art with a focus in sculpture in 2008. After graduating, I rented studio space and then made pots in my kitchen for a bit. That wasn’t ideal (clay is messy!) and in 2010 I moved to Coupeville, Washington where I apprenticed for studio potter, Robbie Lobell. There I met and learned from many amazing potters including wood fire potter Al Tennant. After three years of quiet coastal life I moved back east and kept making work at a craft center in New Jersey. I moved to Vermont in 2013 and worked as a production potter for three years until starting my own pottery line in 2017. I love my community and how pottery connects me to it in a really meaningful way.
When I’m not in the studio, teaching or at farmer’s markets, I am likely spending time with my family, gardening, gazing, swimming, cross country skiing, watching a show or attempting to tackle one of a million house projects.
All of my pottery is fired to 2225 degrees, dishwasher, microwave and oven safe.
