greetings!

I remember the first folder that I ever loved. You read that correctly. I utterly loved a folder. It had a prominent illustration of some sort of large cat on it. I'm guessing it was a cheetah. Or leopard. Well, it had spots, anyway. It was produced by none other than every 8 year old's best friend, Lisa Frank. And in true Lisa Frank style, it was BRIGHT. Seriously, technicolored. Hot pinks and purples, atomic greens, and the most lemony yellows I had ever set my eyes on. I would spend many a Spelling class admiring this amazing folder, instead of dotting my i's.

Even though those colors might just be burnt into my retinas, the one thing I remember the most about that specific school supply was how much happiness it brought me.

Now that I'm (mostly) grown up, I like to remind myself of the things such as the cheetah folder from my school days. I hope that in everything that I design, I can bring even a little bit of that joy to the person who decides to take it home. I truly love what I do, and I hope you can see that in my work.

I've decided to create this page to showcase my love of art and fashion. I'm completely saturated with trends every single day, and think it would be a shame if I didn't share it with whoever might decide to have a look around.

Thanks for checking in, and I can't wait to start sharing!
