After graduating from the Penny Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan, I began my career as an art director at several Detroit advertising agencies. I later joined Papyrus Corporate as a senior art director, which inspired me to pursue my own creative path. I left corporate life to focus on licensing my artwork to stationery, giftware, craft, and fabric companies.

My work blends calligraphy with hand-drawn details in pencil, ink, and watercolor, creating pieces that are both whimsical and sophisticated.

I have written and illustrated three books: Fictionally Fabulous, Ladies Who Drink, and Le Cinéma Français, all published by Running Press.

And also collaborated with fashion designers and retail stores as a live sketch artist for special events, providing customers with memorable keepsakes.

I live in a small town outside of Detroit, Michigan.
