I might have officially started my pottery journey in 2022, but I’ve been a maker at heart for a long time. Back in the 80s, I was designing knitwear for boutiques; these days, I’ve traded the wool for clay.

There is something so peaceful about working with my hands. Pottery is my ‘all-in-one’—it’s therapeutic, tactile, and gives me a space to be completely creative. Every plate is rolled, shaped, and painted entirely by hand, while my wheel-thrown mugs and bowls are where I let my love for bright, happy colors run wild.

Why souvenirs? Because I’m a traveler, too. I’ve reached into enough drawers filled with forgotten tea towels to know I wanted to create something better. I wanted to make the piece you fall in love with instantly—the one that ends up on your coffee table covered in cheese and crackers, reminding you of a wonderful holiday every time you use it. Just like the collection of little dishes I’ve gathered from my own travels, I hope my work brings those sunny memories back to your home.
