Jan is a cell biologist by education, and until just recently worked in the biotech & pharmaceutical industries. Hideharu, a native of Japan, has taught & coached karate since he was very young; he recently retired as the Head Coach for the USA National Karate Team, under the auspices of the US Olympic Committee.

While they are mostly self-taught as potters, they each have had several wonderful teachers along the way. They collaborate on nearly every piece. Hideharu specializes in throwing, and Jan on sculpting and handbuilding. They happily call Loveland, Colorado their home.
