My practice helps me process and interpret my experiences in the world. I am interested in translating the conceptual and emotional complexities of life into a physical form and clay has been the perfect medium.

Creating work is a need to investigate an idea through repetition and transformation. The work becomes not simply an object but the culmination of a process of inquiry allowing me to externalize and examine experiences that remain difficult to articulate.
