My professional encounter with ceramics began during my career as an Industrial Designer in New York in 2007. For over a decade, I worked designing ceramic products for mass production, serving a range of clients and brands within the home industry. This gave me a comprehensive understanding of the material and its industrial processes. I spent years working with and visiting factories abroad, while overseeing the design and production of hundreds of thousands of objects (see ID Portfolio for details).

In 2013, I began to develop my personal practice with ceramics. Today it encompasses sculpture, jewelry, and functional objects.
