I started taking ceramic classes in High School and fell in love with the medium because it helped me learn to dream. I have a degree in Ceramics and Sociology from Louisiana State University. I've received several scholarships to study ceramics at Jingdezhen, China and Penland School of Arts and Crafts in North Carolina and Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts. I teach ceramics class at the Doughertry Arts Center and Austin Pottery.
