I believe I inherited my creativity from my grandmother. She always had me engaged in fun creative crafts. When I doodled, it was often letters and words, so no surprise that I developed a love for hand lettering. The early part of my career was spent working in small studios in downtown Chicago as a graphic designer. The majority of the work was corporate oriented, and included branding, marketing materials, and packaging. Once my son was born, I became a freelance designer, where I added special occasion design to my repertoire, serving mostly clients in my local community. After 10 years of freelance, I pivoted to art licensing.”
