Katie grew up amongst the sandstone walls of northern Arizona and has had her hands deep in dirt all her life. She first fell in love with clay as a therapeutic outlet in 2015 at a community studio in Tucson, AZ, and enjoys creating small batches of pottery made with intention. She began sharing her joy of pottery through teaching in 2022 and is grateful to share the tactile act of creating with clay.
Katie aims to cultivate an environment to nurture creative play - providing a welcoming space to connect with clay and ourselves. She hopes you will leave each experience feeling grounded and inspired, with an heirloom you’ll cherish for years to come.
Workshops are hosted at a variety of spaces including the backyard of Katie’s home studio in South Central Austin, local ceramic studios, plant stores, cafes, and more.
