I am a potter, educator, and native plant enthusiast. Everything I do- teaching, learning, creating, etc.- is inspired by nature and my curiosity about the world around me.
My focus in ceramics is creating elegant clay cookware, serveware, and tableware. I use a variety of clay bodies and methods; all of my work is unique and functional. In 2019, I founded Flying Start, an online learning community with a focus on mathematics for young thinkers ages 4-14. I have a Bachelor of Arts in French (University of Illinois at Chicago, 2006) and a Master of Arts in Teaching (National-Louis University, Chicago, Illinois 2010). I am an Apple Distinguished Educator and a Google for Education Certified Trainer. Follow my pottery work at Karrin Burns Pottery and my garden projects Oak Park Native. Everything I do- teaching, learning, creating, etc.- is inspired by nature and my curiosity about the world around me. Please contact me for professional education and speaking opportunities. |
