Those four words mean so very much to me, because to read them reminds me that I am finally living my dream. After graduating from the Alberta College of Art & Design in 2005, I had a vision of one day having my own ceramics studio. There were roadblocks and hills to climb, blinding snowstorms even, but there were also many signs pointing the way, telling me to keep going. And finally, I've arrived. 


I can only begin to express my gratitude to those who made this journey possible: the teachers and mentors along the way, the retiring potters whom equipment I now use. My family and friends, for their endless support, encouragement and inspiration. Thank you and I love you all.
