I've spent 22 years in the corporate world whilst always nurturing a creative business on the side. In January 2022 our family moved to Chicago IL and I am now a full-time surface pattern designer. I've discovered great inspiration during my time spent with Natasha Guilliford in her Complete Compositions course that now greatly influences my art and surface pattern designs. Florals and botanicals have always been top of mind when I start a design. I try to diversify my portfolio with illustrations and other categories of designs. I love beautiful patterns and my designs are a mix of classic and contemporary.
