Growing up in Portland, Maine, I have always had an affinity for the ocean, mountains, birds, trees, & the simple life. I have loved art all of my life - drawing, painting, making books, & sewing.

With a background in non-profit marketing & art history, I began my studio in 2007 in Providence, RI. I became interested in the art of letterpress & enrolled in classes at AS220 & RISD. Since then I have moved to a studio built by my fiancé, acquired a Golding Jobber No. 6 letterpress, & have been happily printing ever since.

My designs are simple & lovely inspired by vintage ephemera, flora & fauna, & candy-colored hues. I love to share the inspirations & the process behind my work on my blog, things are better with a parrott.

When I am not printing or thinking of my next best design, I can be found having a good ol’ time with my fiancé, Rich, playing with our pups Simone & Scooter, baking, listening to records, gardening, & snowboarding.
