I am happiest at home with a notebook and a Peach Tea Snapple in hand, watching Disney movies and trying to forget about that basket of laundry that needs to be put away.
Who I am
• I’m a country girl and a city girl all rolled into one
• I’m an artist, daydreamer, corny joke teller
• I’m a lover of tacos, cake, and broccoli
• And I dream about when I can retire from it all and become a dog-nanny
What I do
• I design all the things: emails, websites, advertisements, brochures, logos and more
• I always dream BIG and then question my "why" in the middle, just to love it again in the end
• I photograph life as I see it from the smallest details to the epic moments
• I make the prettiest desserts and the most savory of dishes
MEET ME
In My Spare Time...
Though there are times when it seems like creating is all I do, I'm really much more than that. If I could do anything in my spare time, it's usually gardening! I crave being outdoors, digging in the dirt and whispering sweet nothings to my plants.
Hello there...
What I grow
The prettiest flowers: Roses, peonies, wisteria, bleeding hearts, morning glories, hydrangeas, and more. I can't ever get enough flowers in my backyard and come Spring, it smells AMAZING back there!
The freshest vegetables: In my 20' x 12' garden enclosure, I grow a variety of tomatoes, cucumbers, green peppers, broccoli, herbs and more. It varies season by season on what I decide to grow for the year. Last year we built a greenhouse and now I can start all my plants early in the year!
What I don't grow (or should say don't grow well)
HOUSEPLANTS! I have a really difficult time keeping houseplants alive. Which is ironic because I am so good at outdoor gardening. However, I keep trying and like to think I have gotten a little bit better over the years.

a few more things you should know:
Long story short, life forced me to trade in my dream of California sun, palm trees, and attending the very school Walt Disney started in 1961 for a small town art school with 800 students and only 3 1/2 hours away from home.
I was never supposed to be a designer. I was going to be an animator.
You read that right. I have a list of dog breeds that I hope to some day be able to pet.
If you know anyone with a St. Bernard or a Dalmation please hook me up!
I have a "dogs to pet"
Bucket List
no 2
I will never grow out Disney. From movies, to the parks, to history and more. Disney is an integral part of my life and nothing will ever take it's place.
