I am based out of Hilliard, Ohio and have operated my own studio since 2003. I received my BFA in 2002 from the Columbus College of Art and Design, Columbus, Ohio, and my MFA from Miami University, Oxford, Ohio in 2009. I am currently an Adjunct Ceramics Instructor at CCAD and have started a new body of work. The inspiration for my latest series is Color Field Painting and Ceramic Kitsch. I currently have work in the "4th International Small Teapot Competition" at Saddleback College in Mission Viejo, California. Future exhibitions include "Emerging Artists" at the Ohio Craft Museum 7/11/2010 - 8/22/2010 and "This Label is Removable" OSU Urban Art Space TBA.
