Jeremy began pottery in high school and reconnected with the love of clay later in life as an activity with his kids. He has historically worked building youth programming since he was a kid himself. Creating communities through sports and art he has worked and lived in Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Honduras and the Bay Area, California. Since 2011 his endeavors have focused on building a non-profit (www.somaaquatics.com) offering equity based free swim programming throughout Marin County, Ca working with local youth groups, non-profits, cities, towns and school districts. He is most inspired by his two children who push him to grow and see the world differently on a daily basis. They also offer some of the best suggestions when it comes to glazing his pottery.
