As a six-year-old, I wrote and illustrated books for my mom. By the time I got to high school, I was painting a mural on the wall in my biology classroom in exchange for not having to dissect eels. Today, I eat, sleep and breathe visual communications (ask me sometime to define semiotics for you!), and I have an arsenal of tools at my disposal - paints, graphite pencils, pens, a camera with a kit of lenses and other equipment and a computer. It's a good life.

That's me!

I completed my Associate degree at Santa Rosa Junior College and my Bachelor of Arts in Visual Art at State University of New York. Besides having worked for the County of Sonoma for the last seven years, in the past I have also worked for large, publicly-held corporations, small internet startups and other companies that fall outside those two extremes.

I am a lifelong resident of Sonoma County and live in Sebastopol with my husband Steve, our son Cole and our two cats, Neferkitty and Bastet.

I look forward to hearing from you soon!
