Creative + Analytical = Stationery Design
What began as a career in mechanical engineering has blossomed into a career in stationery design. I'm the kind of person who enjoys doing new things, and learning. I love a good challenge. My interest in math and science led me into a degree of mechanical engineering in college, where I loved the constant growing and stretching of my mind.
Once my daughter was born, it was difficult to keep working outside the home. I began learning how to design and started submitting my designs to Minted.com. I still enjoy learning and submitting there, but I decided to branch out and start my own brand, Fresh Cut Prints. It's the ideal career for me - it's always new, always evolving, and I can apply my technical skills through Adobe Illustrator. The technical side of my brain enjoys understanding the details of bleeds, pixel dimensions, and proper anchor placement. Designing also feeds my creative side, and allows me to interact with some amazing people! I've met so many other wonderful designers and clients so far, and I look forward to becoming friends with many more.
