After working for 14 years in a medical business office, I wanted to begin a new career using my language and creative skills toward effective communication. In 2004, I earned an Associates Degree in graphic design from Washtenaw Community College. Since then I have enjoyed creating print materials and web sites for a variety of companies and organizations. I enjoy traveling and being outdoors and spend my free time in my garden, in my kayak, or in my hiking boots.
