I do Plants. Married to Thad Aley. We have an air BnB, Basenjis, and lots of plants. I am fascinated with percussion and didgeridoos: music as communication of emotions. Orba2.
ECU MFA in progress.

When we stepped into the space, many materials had already been reclaimed or removed. That absence is now guiding our hand—inviting us to redesign the pathways and garden structure in a way that listens more closely to how the land wants to move. 🌱

Current views, the city may allow us to place the pottery studio on 219 as 221 is a FEMA lot. We are having to remove buildings built in the fema lot and try to get 225 out of probate.

We’re continuing to build The Kracked Pot, LLC—. The Rose Haven House is gone. They’ve taken anything of value to them and are moving on. What remains is only potential. Today I start moving the Tea plants: camellia senensis. The foundational garden room is being created. 🌱🫖

Arrowmont Fortnight, more than expected. Past the glitz of Gatlinburg’s chaos, a rare creative oasis for deep focus, skilled community, and artistic renewal. It was unexpected, rich, and exactly what I needed. #ECUGradCeramics
