I am excited by an idea that pattern moves between the natural world and human culture in an expansive geological motion; fueled by a sense that pattern forms not only a surface reality of objects, but is also an entrance to deeper, hidden layers of the universe. A lifelong fascination with biological and botanical systems coupled with a joy and compulsion for handcrafting objects has guided me. I come from a carpentry and craft background that informs how I work and is always present in the energy of my work, often utilizing simple building techniques, but pushing them into extreme iterative realms or layering them with multiple systems of color or pattern.
