I’m a UX Designer WHO uses my creativity and positive energy to help people build strong foundations and stay easily connected 

  I'm a midwestern girl at heart who grew up in Moline , Illinois.  My love for experiencing new places helped me land at the University of Tennessee at Martin, where I went to college and then ended up moving down to St. Louis in 2013.  I've been in the graphic design World since I graduated college in 2006 and I've spent the last 10 years plus in the Screen printing industry.  My love for design encouraged me to further my experience and education, so I decided to tackle UX Design courses and expand my knowledge and experience in design.
  I'm a positive and outgoing person who enjoys being outdoors in nature, and anything that involves creating or building with my hands.  I love to draw, paint, work out in the yard, and carpentry as well.  I love building things from scratch, refinishing furniture, and all sorts of DIY projects.  I love to stay busy and you will rarely find me sitting still!
