I intended to study foreign diplomacy and took a pottery class elective in my first year of college. I was so fascinated by the material; I transferred into Fine Arts and got my degree in Ceramics. I have been exploring the infinite facets of pottery making ever since. I have lived and worked in the village of El Rito for over twenty five years. My current work is mainly in functional Stoneware pieces, but I spend a few months out of each year doing sculptural work.
