Artist Statement
"I am a person who truly believes in life-long learning. From my earliest memories as a small child, I learned to knit and sew from people around me. Learning and making is part of the fabric of my life.
When I started creating jewellery as a way to de-stress from writing my MBA thesis, I was reunited with my desire to make. Producing jewellery brought together my entrepreneurial spirit and my passion of working with my hands to create beautiful things.
Deciding to pursue a career in the visual arts, and moving away from Jewellery, I studied ceramics at NBCCD and love experimenting with texture and variations of colour in the medium. Ceramics offers me the opportunity to express the artist within me."
