Design & Illustration
My Journey
Since I was old enough to hold a pencil (or crayon), I have doodled, illustrated, colored or written my name relentlessly. I soon became fascinated with color, composition, clean lines and typography. Once I learned all of these elements could be part of a career, I soon after achieved my BFA in graphic design.
Since, I have gained 15+ years experience with a demonstrated graphic and web design history. I am proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, HTML, CSS, FIgma, and Sketch.
Aside from being a designer & illustrator, I am a dog adoring, music listening, movie watching, bike riding, river kayaking, screen printing, wood working, business owning, ever traveling, girl dad.

I own and operate a dynamic artist storefront that showcases handcrafted work from more than 30 local creators. Alongside managing the retail space, I produce custom screen-printed apparel and flat-stock posters for a wide range of clients and take on various design projects. I also lead hands-on screen-printing workshops, sharing technical skills and creative insight with both beginners and seasoned artists.
