I have loved clay since first touch; I feel connected to all of the elements (earth, air, fire, water) plus the mineral world. I love the transformation by fire with Raku, pit fire and salt techniques. My passion for figure sculpture emerged out of ceramics work over 30 years ago and I continue to find tremendous beauty & emotion in figurative work. Recently I started experimenting with surface coloring and textured finishes, as well as more expressive and narrative work. 

​I have an M.A. in Art Therapy and worked in the field for years before returning to graduate school. I became a Clinical Neuropsychologist and worked for over 25 years in rehabilitation, teaching, supervising, assessment and private practice. I recently retired, with the goal of dedicating more time & energy to my passion of figure sculpture. I moved to Pacific Grove to be by the sea. For over 25 years, I have worked from the life model with sculptors in Marin. I am so grateful for their support, creative community, inspiration & friendship. 
​

​I have learned from Tebby George, Martine Vaugel, Michelle Gregor, Debra Fritts and others in workshops. I am grateful for the Samuel Fleisher Art Memorial in South Philly for my first dive into figurative work.
