About
I'm a jr. graphic designer and I am re-entering the design field after a five year hiatus after college to start a family. I've spent the last year doing freelance print design for a number of clients such as The Typewriter Girls Poetry Cabaret and Hyacinth Girl Press. I love art and design and I love what I do. I believe that good design catches the eye, but great design stops you in your tracks and makes you feel. I want to create great design and I am always striving to make my work better.
