My adventures.
Who am I? A Professional Illustrator and Designer in Palatka, Florida with an overactive imagination and a flair for the creative. Outside my professional life, I'm a self-proclaimed 'old soul' with a passion for old-world crafts. From making soap with lye to hand-dyeing fabric using natural materials, my interests are as diverse as my design skills. And yes, I might just have a small (okay, large) obsession with candles and story-rich video games.
My artistic journey started young and led me to Auburn University, where I earned my degree in Graphic Design. This path took me through Auburn's Office of Professional and Career Development, where I honed my skills creating engaging visual content for student events, and even extended to the Smithsonian's National Portrait Gallery, where I contributed to concept work.
Since 2013, I've freelanced with a mix of businesses in Alabama, serving clients like DeepTarget, LSINC, Community Foundation of Greater Huntsville, and Cook’s Pest Control. My commitment to quality, organizational prowess, and client-focused approach are why businesses trust me with their projects.
A highlight of my career is co-founding Ink and Lyre, a tabletop RPG side-hustle, with my husband. Here, I do everything from illustration to web design, and I've spearheaded the creation of a cohesive brand identity. Our first year on Twitch was a whirlwind – gaining over 1,500 followers, ranking as a top D&D channel, and raising nearly $2,000 for charity!
Currently, as a Senior Graphic Designer at NZXT, I play a vital role in shaping our product launch campaigns. It's here that my skills in design, storytelling, and understanding client needs all come together to create something truly special.
