My interest in art began at home as I watched my father, who is also a professional artist, paint. He made the arts an important part of my upbringing and memories from my childhood are now the base of most of my work. The contrast of textures and color in nature, the ever changing landscape, and the juxtaposition between nature and technology… all create an ongoing evolution to my work.

I grew up in Sioux Falls South Dakota and received my Bachelor of Fine Arts in ceramics and art education at the University of South Dakota. I continued my artistic education at the University of Kansas where I received my Master of Fine Arts in ceramics in 2003. I am currently a ceramic artist and art educator in Sioux Falls, SD.
