About

Jess creates functional work and loves the strong connection between food, pottery, and people - a former restaurant owner, her work is so much in service to the user’s experience. Her pottery is made considering the person who will eventually enjoy her pieces. She is motivated by how a mug feels in your hand, or how comforting and grounding it is to enjoy soup from a handmade bowl. Her work brings joy and pleasure to everyday life.

Jess is happy to be focused on pottery these days and has rekindled her love of process, wood firing and making mid-range and high-fire clay work in an electric kiln. She is endlessly inspired by all things clay.
