I have over 30 years of experience designing for many forms of media: vinyl, apparel, print and web.  My style is typically geared towards women, but I’ve designed logos for many types of businesses.  I got my start as a photo journalist in the military with layout and design for newsprint and I have continued to expand my knowledge and experience.

My resume is unique and my skill set is broad.  I believe it makes me an asset to your business on several levels. I've spent the last 5 years expanding my expertise in strategy, organization and the further development of strategic thinking as I was hired to launch an in-house print center.   After successfully launching and developing a team of over 30 volunteers, it has grown into a more comprehensive (behind-the-scenes) operations department, and has since transformed into a multi-department coalition for a mega church in Peoria, AZ serving 7 campuses.
 
In addition, I have been running a women’s ministry since 2010.  I design the website, all print collateral, planner/organizers, workshop materials, apparel for fundraising as well as all of my social media squares.

I have the skill set to take each project from vision to fruition while maximizing the organizations financial stewardship.  I truly love all aspects of what it takes to make something “come to life.”
 
I've learned that designing has unique parameters when it comes to working with different forms of media.  After designing for most forms (of media), and having run several businesses by very frugal means, I’ve learned through experience to look at all aspects of what you want; what it costs and how you make both desires come together to capture exactly what you want.

Need help with your wedding?  I love designing Save the Date, Invitation, RSVP, Menu, Table Numbers and Thank You's - all coordinating!  Got a business?  Need a logo, business cards, an avatar, a social media quote square, postcards, a simple web site or even re-doing business forms that look like they've been copied 100 times ?  Or maybe you need someone to come observe your business - you know it has something not quite working but, you need an outsider to offer strategic advice.  Or maybe you've grown and are completely unorganized and not running efficient.  These are right in my wheel house!
