I’m a life-long creator. I was blessed to have a grandma who took time to teach me how to sew, to cross-stich, calligraphy, scrapbooking - all things creative! I am still a multi-passionate person and love to learn new skills and techniques. Like most creatives, I often say, “I bet I could make that!”

I graduated with a degree in mathematics education and immediately got a job teaching middle school math - which I loved! Once I became a mom, I decided to stay home full time. I kept myself busy teaching piano lessons, a bit of photography, and sewing dresses and bows for a local baby boutique.

Once both kids were in school full-time, I spent my time learning everything I could about digital design and developing my skills to create my own art. You can often find me doodling in a notebook, drawing with my Apple Pencil on my iPad or at my computer designing in Adobe Illustrator.

My family is my joy. We love to hike whenever we can, and we swim all summer to stay cool. We also love going to Disney parks and watching Marvel movies.

Why Rain and Shine?

My childhood and early adult life was spent in Western Washington – an amazing place to grow up, graduate from college, get married and start a family. A career opportunity brought our family to Arizona. We left the rainy and lush Pacific Northwest and headed to the sunny and dry Sonoran Desert. Washington will forever be “home”, but we love our life in Arizona.
