For many years, I enjoyed running my growing branding business, helping businesses of all sizes express who they were. Those years taught me many things including resilience, patience, problem solving and the value of hard work and persistence. Over time, I faced personal challenges and began to feel a gentle pull towards something quieter and more meaningful.

I began to explore writing and a variety of artistic crafts, including pottery. For generations, artisans around the world have shaped clay into vessels and objects of purpose and beauty. It is a craft that can take a lifetime to explore. I was just beginning my own journey, drawn slowly to the forms clay could become - and how working with it echoed my own sense of becoming.

"Pottery became a place for me where imperfection felt like it belonged." It quietly became a place where I could explore, create and reconnect. 

Alongside pottery, learning, journal writing and travel have helped me discover more of who I am becoming. These passions now sit at the heart of Sotto Studio.

The things I create in words and form are inspired by nature, beautiful places, heartfelt conversations, and the small moments that often become the most lasting memories.

Through Sotto Studio, I share stories and reflections that invite us to pause, look beneath the surface, and notice how our experiences and thoughts shape who we are becoming.
