Endlessly curious, and very driven, I have been making things since Kindergarten, where I sold seed bead necklaces strung on dental floss for a dollar. From my desk in high school I sold handmade jewelry as Seaside Designs.

​Full of enthusiasm for both design and entrepreneurship, I attended the New Brunswick College of Craft and Design, graduating from Surface Design in 2010. I then started Paper Pattern Silk, a business selling gifts featuring my illustrations to retail shops. I focus on making fun, affordable gifts.
