I am constantly in awe and curious about the intersection of the wild world and the shaped one.  I was raised in a small mountain town with the native Colorado landscape at my doorstep.  Through local and world travel, I’ve observed the harmonious connections and inter-woven relationships between cities, their cultures, and their locations.  My experiences and memories influence my approach to life both inside and outside the studio.  Building on my upbringing, I studied art and worked as a sculptor, crafting public spaces out of stone.  Throughout it all, I’ve developed a comfort level with a wide range of creative practices.

Each project offers an ongoing exploration, an unfolding process, and an opportunity to showcase what I’ve learned along the way.

I am in pursuit of a creative life, seeking designs that are authentic and honest, intrigued by the nature of the materials, and by solutions that stand the test of time with a focus on generating connection through craftsmanship.
