Introduction

Thank you for browsing my scrapbook resume. I currently hold down several design team positions with large manufacturers and freelance for many publications. I have had hundreds of pages published in a variety of forms including books, magazines, websites, catalogs, class design and trade show booth display.

My most largest and no doubt most exciting accomplishment yet is the publication of my sole authored book "That's Life, Finding Scrapbook Inspiration in the Everyday".
'That's Life' was published by F+W Publications (Memory Makers Books) in the USA and was released in June 2007. It is currently available worldwide through book stores, book clubs, and online retailers such as Amazon.com.

My Style.

My pages are linear, organised and detailed. I take pride in my journaling style, which is meaningful without being syrupy and often touches on the humorous side of life. My photos are a strong focus of my layouts. I love working with large format photos as well as the standard sizes and you will see me do a variety of single or multiple photo pages. I don’t feel that my style can be categorized, as I enjoy experimenting with many different techniques. However I feel that my strength in keeping all the elements of my layout looking clean, linear and balanced shines through.
