My work is a celebration of nature's organic movement, a love sparked in my childhood by the colorful blooms of my grandmother's garden. After earning my BFA in illustration and Graphic Design from Kendall College of Art & Design, I spent years navigating the worlds of greeting card design and home textiles. Those experiences shaped my current focus: blending watercolor motifs with contemporary patterns to bring beauty into the everyday.
Today, I'm back in my hometown of Midland, Michigan. When I'm not in the studio, I'm likely enjoying a local craft beer, cheering on the Chicago Cubs, or keeping up with my husband, Rob, and our two busy boys.
I've always been fascinated by brushstrokes and the unpredictable flow of water to create something truly organic.
When I'm in the studio, I'm not just painting nature; I'm collaborating with the medium to capture the energy, movement, and joy of the shapes I see in nature. My process is all about finding that perfect balance between my hand, the wildness of watercolor, and the fluid shapes of the outdoors.

I believe the objects we surround ourselves with should do more than just fill a space; they should ground us. I design with the hope that my work helps curate intentional moments of warmth and presence.
A huge part of my professional life over the last decade has been my partnership with MHS Licensing. Since 2014, I've had the joy of working as one of their licensing artists, which has allowed my designs to be on everything from home textiles to stationery across the country.
I am thrilled to share my latest work with you! My collections are represented by MHS Licensing, and we would love to help you find the perfect patterns for your next project.
