Ever since I was old enough to hold a crayon, I've had a passion for creating beautiful things. In high school, I taught myself how to use Photoshop and InDesign and became the Design Editor of our yearbook staff. I didn’t know it then, but that was my first official role as a graphic designer. Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to work as a photographer in a photography studio and then I worked for close to eight-years as both a designer and photographer for an in-house creative team at a local non-profit. I have been told I have “the eye” for design, so it was easy for me to learn new design programs and techniques to help advance my God-given talent. I love music (I married a drummer), daydreaming about home renovations, and watching movies.
