I’ve been working with clay for the past five years, beginning as a hobby and gradually evolving into a fulfilling creative career. I’m drawn to the calming, meditative nature of ceramics—it has a way of grounding you in the present moment. Each of my pieces is handcrafted in my small home studio in Surrey, where I enjoy exploring different forms and creating functional work that brings beauty to everyday rituals. After all, coffee always tastes better in a handmade mug. Alongside developing my own collection and teaching ceramics I also work as a potter at Henry Holland Studio in Hackney.
