About me

I’m a surface pattern designer who has recently moved back to New England after living in Texas for 7 years.

I love soothing color palettes with multiple shades of the same color, organic textures, a bit of irregularity and a sense of openness and movement in my designs. I enjoy making marks by hand as much as possible. Experimentation with a variety of mediums such as acrylic paint, ink, charcoal, pen and natural elements is the most fun part of my process. I’m currently designing in Adobe Illustrator.

Classic architecture and design inspire me and my work often reflects a simplified, more contemporary version of those classics. Nature is a big inspiration as well. Being a natural storyteller helps guide my creative choices while creating in collections.

I’ve always been a creative and enjoyed all sorts of arts and crafts as hobbies. Previously I was a hair stylist but longed for a change. I have some college level art training but am primarily learned design through online classes. During the pandemic I finally decided to overcome my nervousness around technology and learn Adobe Illustrator, not knowing where it would take me. Turns out I love pattern design and it’s become my passion! Although I started later in life and it’s taken a while to get here I’m thankful for my journey and wouldn’t change a thing.

You can currently see five of my designs for sale with Grace And Gardenia Wallpaper.
