Born and raised in Madison, Wisconsin, I grew up with a love for art and music. Connecting with my creative side at a young age, I spent hours sketching the logos from my favorite bands and album covers. Countless sketches and dozens of concerts later, I realized that my ear for music had turned into an eye for design, and I began studying graphic design at Madison College.
Now an award-winning senior designer, my 20+ years of experience have led me through many different facets of design. While I began as a designer/proofreader, I soon became proficient in everything from print collateral and logo design to 3-dimensional wall graphics, die cuts, project management, and photography. While still a huge connoisseur of music, I also enjoy nature/landscape photography, hiking, traveling, finding and playing new disc golf courses, and a good book or movie.
