GREAT DESIGN STARTS HERE. Let me help you create a professional image that will attract new customers and keep them coming back for more.


WHAT IS GREAT DESIGN?
Great design is about more than just aesthetics. Great design communicates your message to your target audience, builds credibility, and helps create a professional image. It forms your customers’ first impression of your business, making your brand recognizable to those important to your success.

ABOUT ME
During my 30 years of professional graphic design experience, I’ve focused on being the best I can be at what I do. I’ve had the opportunity to work with many different types of businesses and nonprofit organizations.

My favorite thing is to work with people who are passionate about what they do and to help them communicate that passion to their audience!


I'm very knowledgable in executing both the creative and technical sides of graphic design, working backwards from the end product to expertly deliver files set up as required for each production – saving my clients time and money.

I regularly update my education to stay on top of everything from the latest in printing technologies to the complex needs of food and beverage packaging compliance.


A strong believer in giving back to my community, I served for 12 years as an Executive Board member and Creative Director for a special education focused nonprofit organization. I also gave to my professional community through service on the national board of the Graphic Artists Guild.

A lover of landscape photography, kayaking, and line dancing, I live in Southeast Connecticut with my husband and one of our daughters.
