I am a mom, a wife, a friend, a business woman, a coffee addict, a poor housekeeper, a decent cook, a sports mom, and.... a scrapbooker. I live in Vermont, although I’m originally a California girl. I’m married to Rob, and mom to Hope and Austin (16 y/o & 11 y/o). During the day, I work as a project manager in a cosmetics manufacturing company. At night, you’ll find me holed up on my scrapbook room listening to loud music and playing with paper. Scrapbooking has become a creative retreat in the midst of my chaotic life.
I started scrapbooking shortly after my son was born, focusing on 8.5 x 11 pages and chronological albums. I quickly became overwhelmed with the notion of getting caught up, and I put down my deco scissors for the next several years. I dusted off my supplies a few years ago, and then decided to jump into the publishing game in 2006. It's fair to say that I haven’t looked back! I’ve had a blast working with various publications, and was thrilled (honestly? Shocked!) to be named a 2007 Memory Makers Master. I’m excited to join the Fiskars team, and can’t wait to see what this part of the journey brings!
