For as long as I can remember, I’ve taken on the role of an observer, watching and wondering about people’s motivations and stories.
This sense of curiosity moves me to deeply understand human needs and desires. It has shaped my professional work experience as brand strategist working to help brands create relationships with consumers, and as a cultural researcher and trends and insights expert focused on decoding human behavior and cultural experiences. And it led me to turn inward and journey into myself. It inspired me to become an active participant in my own healing and unfolding.
This sense of curiosity fuels me as I explore the process of learning ceramics. Working with clay has been a lesson in observation and understanding of form and of myself. Slowing down, working with my hands, imprinting clay with intention grounds me and brings me back to myself. This practice inspires me to learn about how others explore the language and experience of ceramics and other creative practices.
