I’ve loved tea ever since the day I got lost in San Francisco’s China Town and wandered into a tea shop as a teenager. When I moved back to my home state of Georgia, I quickly discovered there was nowhere nearby to source quality tea. I decided to solve that problem for myself, and every one else. When I started playing with botanicals in my tea, found new flavors I had to share. Today I feature eighteen original blends, plus a few small-batch blends I make for friends and fun.

Good tea needs good teaware. I’ve been learning ceramics since spring of 2022 and am fascinated by the interplay of earth, water, air, and fire in this art form. Teaware should attract the attention of it’s user; it should not be easily overlooked. My work reflects the irregularity of nature. No two shapes, surfaces, or cups of tea are ever the same. Increasingly, my work contains materials gathered from where I live. Glazes made from ashes of plants in my backyard; Clay dug from local valleys. I want my ceramics to connect my audience to the places I’ve been, and to the earth we share.
