A little about me...

I've always loved art. Always. It's been the one constant in my life whether I knew it or not.


Growing up, there wasn’t a safe piece of paper in my home. I doodled everywhere and everything—papers, magazines, envelopes…brother’s homework. Then I started sketching portraits. I’d go through a magazine, rip out photographs, and then try to redraw them in a pencil sketch. I’d obsess until every detail was just right.


For 15½ years, I held a corporate marketing position. I chose to step out of the traditional office setting and into the role of freelance book cover artist and designer. I now use my design, marketing, and business experience to create art that grabs the reader’s attention. And I’ve never been happier.


My first professional logo was used in 1991 for a community development and my first book cover design was published in 2005. My creations have received numerous awards and accolades and many have graced bestseller titles. For me, there’s something magical about finding that right combination of images and text and then shaping them to create the perfect visual story. Because I do love a good story, especially those told in a picture.


I love what I do and hope it shows in my work.
