Surface Pattern Designer
About
When I’m away from my home studio, my iPad Pro has become a handy companion for creating repeat patterns on the go.
Over the past 3 decades, I’ve embarked on an incredible and varied journey, showcasing my diverse and creative talents. This journey stands as a testament to the remarkable way in which a boundless imagination can be transformed into innovative designs.

Generational Sewers
You can say I’ve been surrounded by fabrics my whole life! My dad was a 2nd generation furniture upholsterer. Even though he’s now retired, he kept many of his machines that he still uses in his make shift workshop pictured here in his garage. Here we are sewing up bench cushions for a reading nook I designed.
