Artist Statement

I have created art since I was a teenager. I studied art and applied design at the University of Maryland, sculpture at the Washington Studio School and pottery at the Glen Echo Pottery.  For 25 years, I was an elementary and middle school art teacher.  I was profoundly influenced by the playful and interactive energy that my young students brought to their projects, and I strive to apply the same creative approach to my own work. Currently I'm working at Harmony Hall arts center as the ceramics instructor.

My work has recently been juried into exhibits in several galleries, including Harmony Hall,  Annmarie Gardens, Artists and Makers, The Popcorn Gallery at Glen Echo, and The Del Ray Artisans Gallery.
