I do illustration and design using pencil, gouache, pastel, and watercolor. I scan my traditional work and use Adobe Master Collection CS3, primarily PhotoShop, Illustrator, and InDesign, to add the verse and design the layout of the cards. It’s nice to help people communicate and connect with each other through a social expressions venue. Giving a greeting card creates a lasting impression and emotional bond between sender and receiver. In a national survey for the Greeting Card Association, nearly one-third of respondents said they keep the special cards they receive “forever.”

I have a BFA from Southern Illinois University in Art Education, and an MFA from the University of Houston in Graphics and Illustration. I take pride in the fact that I am considered easy to work with, and I make your goals first priority. I have worked with many business clients, such as GSI, Inc., Houston Home and Garden Magazine, The Houston Chronical, Sangamon Greeting Card Company, Allen Energy, Physician's Choice Wellness, LLC., The Coaching House, Inc., as well as numerous individuals and organizations creating commissioned pieces.
