I started years ago fascinated with the Mac and graphic design.  Since then I have spent everyday working in front of this big screen creating marketing projects that go to press, web, trade shows, billboards, magazines and social media.

​

My career started working for a local printer while going to college.  From there I went on to own my own freelance marketing and graphics company.   I am very proud to have worked and contributed my skills in marketing departments at local companies like Priority Health, Huntington Bank, Frederik Meijer Gardens and Behler-Young.

​

My skills transformed into event planning, sales, corporate branding, strategic planning, budgeting, and community relations.

​

I raised 2 successful MSU Spartan sons ... "Go Green!" ... when my youngest son started college, I sold my home and heading for the lake.  I always knew I wanted to be on water after my boys were out of the home.... and I sure did not waste any time!  Love to wake up and have coffee on my back patio overlooking Barlow Lake.

​

Few of my favorite things .... family and friends, boating, cycling, reading, playing cards, travel, tiki huts, working around the cottage, and of course designing.
