Professional Bio

Teaching Clay is an instructional resource created specifically for studio owners and educators who want to confidently offer clay in their studios. We provide clear, step-by-step guidance on how to successfully introduce clay into a PYOP studio as an added revenue stream, while also elevating and refining clay programs for studios that are already working with clay.
From selecting the right clay and purchasing essential tools, to understanding firing temperatures and kiln processes, Teaching Clay removes the guesswork from teaching clay. Our resources include project ideas, walk-in clay instruction, pottery wheel class guidance, studio membership models, summer camp guides, and more—designed to be practical, approachable, and studio-tested.
Teaching Clay empowers studios to teach clay with confidence, structure, and creativity, turning clay into a sustainable, profitable, and inspiring part of their business.
