With over 10 years of design experience in a variety of professional settings, I'm confident I can design materials to fit your company's needs.

After receiving my Bachelor's degree in Graphic Arts (Western Illinois University), I worked at a high-quality weekly shopper publication (McDonough County Shopper in Macomb, IL). Then my husband & I moved to NY state, where I was lucky enough to be employed as a graphic artist by The Syracuse Newspapers -- circulation around 180,000. Next, I worked briefly with the good folks at the Alamogordo Daily News. Since January of 2005, I've been the full-time on-staff designer for the NM Museum of Space History; there, I'm busy with all sorts of Big Design Adventures, including creation of promotional materials, development of Museum-related gift shop products, and involvement with exhibit design. (FishFoot is my "side" thing!)

My many years of design experience have allowed me to work with an array of businesses -- from retailers & grocery chains to auto dealerships & service providers -- even school districts. My projects have run the gamut from black-and-white newspaper ads to 4-color glossy tourism booklets, with a few state-level awards won along the way. No matter the size of the project, I give full attention to detail and pride myself in creating high-quality design.

To provide businesses with well-spoken materials is my goal, and to be challenged to create unique expressions of basic information is always exciting for me. More than any other facet of my vocation, I love to CREATE!
