I was born and raised in Oregon, one of the most beautiful places on Earth in my opinion. I had the Pacific Ocean, the Cascade mountain range and the Coastal range wonderland at my fingertips. I am an avid outdoors-woman and find true connection in nature.

My first educational endeavor was to explore geology. I was so curious about the earth’s natural processes and how we came to be where we are now. I studied geology at the University of Colorado Boulder before transferring to the University of Oregon in attempt to find a degree with less math.

My passions lead me to landscape photography and travel journalism. I quickly realized my path was going to involve more creativity and art. I found my love for the intricate and often overlooked details in design in a typography class at the University of Oregon.

I still spend my time exploring nature and find much of my inspiration in the natural world. I look forward to balancing a career focused around a computer screen with an avid outdoor lifestyle.
