    Bio

    As a second-generation basket weaver, I am deeply rooted in the traditions of basketry. My work embodies a blending of the timeless art of basket weaving with contemporary aesthetics. Nestled in the charming town of Benton, Kentucky, I draw inspiration from an enduring legacy of craftsmanship, creating pieces that are functional while adding a touch of contemporary elegance sure to bring a Kentucky flair to any space.

    I believe that art can be both beautiful and practical. My baskets intersect a vibrant modern color palette with the structural elegance of traditional design, creating pieces that will fit seamlessly into your life or home. Whether nestled in the heart of your home, serving as a centerpiece of a celebration, or cherished as a gift, my baskets will spark joy and connection by reminding us of the beauty in both the everyday and the exceptional.

    Through my weaving I strive to honor the past while embracing the future, crafting baskets that can be handed down from generation to generation as either a statement piece or a trusty companion for daily adventures.
