The next ten years of his life were dominated by his passion for turning mud into interesting objects and firing kilns long into the night. He earned a BS in Studio Art from USI. After graduating, he built his own kiln made from used brick and fueled with waste vegetable oil. He has exhibited work at craft shows and galleries both locally and nationally.
