I am a retired public schools educator currently working at my home studio and contract teaching part time at Jump Into Art Studios in McKinney. My wife and I moved to this area in 2022 to be closer to the grandkids. I work mainly with clay; however, I also paint with acrylics and sculpt with mild steel. I have a passion for Raku and Alternative Firing techniques as well as throwing and altering forms of clay on the pottery wheel. My retired person motto is "If it's not fun, I'm not doing it".
