I found ceramics at Warren Wilson College in 2014. Up until 2016, I spent a lot of my time in the studio working mostly on the wheel and did my senior project making screen printed cylinders. After college I spent the next eight years, traveling, skateboarding, learning guitar, writing, making most of my artwork in sketch books, some on cardboard with paint pens, and a few large pieces at the FOUNDATION d.i.y skatepark. During September 2025 I set up a studio space in Asheville, NC where I was teaching myself urethane mold making and concrete casting. That studio and many others, along with most of Western North Carolina, was destroyed in the massive flood caused by Hurricane Helene just short of a month after I moved in. After being abruptly uprooted from my home in Asheville and a fluctuating chain of hard times and good fortune, I finally landed here in Philly in February 2025 and started working at TCS in August 25. In my free time I’ve been working on small plasticine sculptures at home and plaster molds in the studio.
