Carrie Creech was raised in the curiosity of sound and shape. From there, she explored various materials and methods but found her grounding in clay. She secured her undergraduate degree from Clemson University in ceramics under Mike Vatalaro and Sue Grier. Following, she continued her studies through various residencies (The Bascom & Starworks), assisting a wealth of ceramic artists (such as Suze Lindsay, Akira Sitake, Lindsay Oesterritter, & Kevin Snipes, etc.) and most recently — an apprenticeship with Penland based potter, Micheal Kline. The events of 2020 brought Carrie back to her hometown of Greenville, SC which she translated into an opportunity to establish her studio, build her brand and share her passion of ceramics with the surrounding community.
