Breena is a ceramic artist living in Helena, Montana where she balances her studio practice with work and enjoying the great outdoors. Raised in the plains of Amarillo, Texas, Breena discovered her love for clay in a high school art class that led her to attend the University of North Texas where she earned a Bachelors of Fine Arts with a concentration in Ceramics and a minor in Psychology in 2013. Breena later attended Northern Arizona University for Post Baccalaureate studies in ceramics and her ceramic work has been shown in many juried art exhibitions throughout the United States and Canada.

​In addition to traditional education, she has worked in studios across the country, been a studio assistant to many ceramic artists, and participated in artist residency programs. Starting in 2016, Breena spent two years as the Gallery Manager at the Archie Bray Foundation for the Ceramic Arts where that experience of working with the large community of artists and art collectors solidified her decision to make Helena, Montana a permanent home. She was a short-term Artist-in-Residence at the Red Lodge Clay Center, and most recently, a short-term Artist-in-Residence at the Archie Bray Foundation of Ceramic Arts. In 2018, she settled into her home studio nestled in the South Hills of Helena in a house built in 1880 that comes with all the quirks. Breena is an active part of the ceramic arts community in Helena and participates in many groups and organizations throughout the state.
