Creative use of materials is rooted in my drive as a designer. Most of it stems from my childhood imagination. Growing up around nature and also battling asthma taught me to explore and innovate. When I am not dreaming about textures and creating new plaster techniques & finishes, I am found casting, sculpting, and working with fabrics and textiles.

B.F.A. Fibers, School of Art, University of Washington, Seattle, WA

Sylvia Tacker Fiber Arts Award 2008


As an artist, I try to incorporate and work from nature whenever possible.  As a craftswoman, I am passionate about using materials that work in harmony with our planet.  Luckily, using natural materials often produces the most aesthetically pleasing result.  My training as a fiber artist has brought me to an intersection of art and craft; it allows me to take advantage of the disciplined professionalism of design while maintaining the gritty reality of hands-on labor.  I am constantly seeking new ways to refine both aspects of my creative life, and find new inspiration everyday.
