I am a German-born maker based in Oranmore, Co. Galway, who has made the west of Ireland her home for over twenty years. After a long career in technology, I turned to ceramics full-time, bringing the same precision and problem-solving to hand-throwing and hand-carving stoneware. My work is rooted in the landscapes and heritage of the west of Ireland the Burren, Connemara, the Atlantic coast, and the medieval ruins that punctuate it. Each piece is made by hand and marked with my maker's mark. In 2026, I was commissioned to create the official ceramic merchandise for Imelda May's Raised on Songs and Stories tour hand-carved Celtic Knot trinket dishes that travelled with the tour across Ireland and the UK.
