“Design is the silent ambassador of your brand.” –paul rand

I help Marketing, Communications and HR Directors in Manufacturing breathe easy by reaching prospects, engaging employees and winning new customers with professional graphic design services. 

I recently found some of my old  report cards and noticed the comments from my art teachers in high school and college, which was an early indicator of how I ended up in design. I graduated from Concordia College with a B.A. in Communications with an emphasis in Advertising and a Minor in Art. I would spend hours working on a project in the studio to get it just right. I've worked in several different areas of design:

• Printing Industry: Which fueled my love of all things ink and paper
• Publishing Industry: A lot of late nights getting magazines published & out the door!
• Ad Agency: Working at an agency in the warehouse district eventually made me realize I wanted to start my own design studio. I bring my design thinking into every aspect of client work. I love helping other businesses succeed by achieving their marketing goals through design.

My work has been published in Packaging World, Healthcare Packaging, Law & Politics, SuperLawyers, and MSP magazines and I am a Board Member of the Institute of Packaging Professionals, Minnesota Chapter.

When I’m not busy at work, I enjoy spending time outdoors; camping trips up north, kayaking on nearby lakes; or just taking a walk in the neighborhood. I am also a big proponent of water quality. I am involved in several local groups serving as President of The Friends of Northwood Lake Association, and as Alternate Commissioner on the Bassett Creek Watershed Commission.
