Message

I like to hear myself think while laying my hands on clay.
That is when my thoughts lead to creation.
My work is inspired by and drawn from what I think and feel in my daily life.
I always aim to capture and shape my feelings of the moment.

In addition, for serving dishes and vessels, I intend to make them simple to use and enjoyable, hoping to help brighten the everyday table.
