I am a graphic designer who got my start in web design/development, but eventually transitioned into surface design and consumer product creation — mainly for the apparel and crafting/paper goods industries.
Throughout the past decade, I have done the majority of my design work for the crafting industry, creating paper goods and consumer product lines for companies such as American Crafts‘ Project Life, Echo Park Paper Company, Carta Bella Paper Company, Paper Rose Studio, and more.
For almost a decade, I also worked as the Creative Director of The Digital Press, a direct-to-consumer online sales company which I owned and helped grow into one of the premier digital scrapbooking companies on the web until I closed it in 2023 to refocus my career on surface design and the creation of original illustrations and patterns for consumer goods.
As for my design style… my artwork tends to be bright, colorful, and fun… clean, modern, and simple.
Fun trivia? I was formerly an NCAA college soccer coach before “retiring” to work at home full-time as a graphic designer after having my kids. That decade-long experience in team leadership helped me effectively transition into successfully managing The Digital Press’s design team, which consisted of over 2 dozen graphic designers who were spread all over the globe.
When I’m not busy tinkering in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, or InDesign, you can find me in the Pacific Northwest where I live with my husband and two sons. We’re an active, sport-loving gang (Go Timbers! Go Thorns! Go Blazers!) and we celebrate “Donut Day” together every Sunday morning. It’s entirely possible our kids literally thought Sunday was called “Donut Day” until they were […too old to mention].
