One of the most life-changing purchases in my life was a Parks Project shirt from REI. I liked the design and told the hubs that I wanted it, which prompted the following response: “If you get this shirt, we have to visit these national parks.” Like that was a threat.
Since 2021 we've visited 12 national parks, hiking and exploring and canyoneering and climbing. We still have so many more we want to explore.


Graphic design is a passion of mine and I feel thankful each day that I get to do something that I love as a career. Each project is an opportunity to expand your horizons, either in skills and knowledge of the craft or in the field of your clients. And I love that design helps feed my never satiable need to learn.
Other things about me:
I’m an avid reader. Of all genres, but if I'm reading for fun it'll be dark fantasy / sci-fi or historical fantasy.

Typography makes my heart grow like the Grinch's. I create my own typefaces on the side (none launched yet) and love doing lettering projects.
My favorite color is black but I'm still a happy person. :)
