About Nicole Aquillano

Nicole took an unconventional path to become a studio potter. After pursuing a career in engineering, she left to follow her passion and earn her MFA. Since then, she has developed a successful ceramics line which she sells across the country. Nicole etches each image by hand into the porcelain clay and inlays a dark underglaze.
