She received her Bachelors of Fine Arts from Paris College of Art in France and a certificate of Ceramics and Metaphysics at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn. Specializing in porcelain, she pushes the boundaries of material limitations and through a process of deep outro/introspection she creates otherworldly landscapes that transcend the physical and into the spiritual realm to encourage the investigation of the rapture of being. Her teaching style emphasizes a development of exploration and intuitive manipulation of material to touch the inherently healing mechanism of creative work.
