I began learning about clay in the 80's by taking classes at VC and SBCC,

as well as workshops with various clay artists.

In 2000 I began teaching high school ceramics at a small private school

and continued until I retired in 2021. That is where I fell in love with

teaching both high school students and adults.

While I love to create with clay, an ever-changing process with something

always new to learn, my true passion is teaching. There is nothing more

fulfilling than watching someone successfully throw his or her first pot

and develop a passion for working with clay. I continue to teach adults,

beginning and intermediate throwing at the Vita Art Center.

You can purchase my work at the Ventura Pottery Gallery in
