About Me

Welcome to my webblog! I am a artist, mother of 2 young boys and a wife to a future author. I grew up in a small town in Massachusetts and from as early as I can remember I was always creating art. I guess it comes from the influence of an artistic father. After graduating from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY I began my journey as
an artist. I first went into designing children's wear before deciding to become a freelance
print designer. It was here that I realized the potential of my work. I would sell as many as 10
designs a week! So I then decided it was time to
branch into licensing. It is in this world of licensing I could get the recognition I was seeking, plus see my work on many different products. This will be my seventh year in this business and I now see myself branching into other facets such as character and brand licensing. One of my many dreams is to write and illustrate a children's book and hopefully soon this will happen. As I go along on this journey I will constantly post my newest endeavors and take you on the ride with me.
I look forward to hearing all of your comments
as I begin this next chapter of my life.
