My enthusiasm for lettering began at age 2 when I first put crayon to paper and has been gradually refined over the years to its current love of curves, swerves, flourishes and an addiction to stationery and paper. My passion for calligraphy is coupled with an 18-year professional background in art direction and graphic design where I married color and form for major retailers such as Sephora, Gymboree, and Men's Wearhouse, and national publications like Golf Magazine, Parents, and Mother Jones.

Im not shy to admit my weakness for all things mid-century modern, heirloom tomatoes, and the japanese aesthetic of wabi-sabi. I also adore tacky refrigerator magnets and reality tv (but don't tell anyone).
