My passion for graphic and web design is driven by a combination of my techie, creative and perfectionist traits, resulting in clean and professional business designs. While earning my degree in Human Development from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, I enjoyed a variety of art and technology classes for pleasure. While it wasn’t my first career, it’s always been in my blood.

My first career was elementary teaching, including spending years teaching abroad. I believe my strength was connecting with each of my students in a way that was personal and effective, which continues to play an essential role in graphic design. It’s great when a client knows what they want and I can get right to work, but I also enjoy guiding clients through several discovery processes, resulting in unique and personalized designs that my clients can truly call their own.

I have been working in graphic design for 10 years, and I continually seek courses and articles to improve my skills and keep up with current trends.
