My graphic design background includes a Bachelor of Fine Art, Bachelor of Design in Visual Communication and an Associate of NSCAD from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design University, as well as a Master of Arts from the University of Iowa. I received a Centennial Scholarship and an Elizabeth Greenshields grant during this time. I worked for the Swiss visual communications firm Gottschalk+Ash International creating corporate communications for three years, and was studio manager for eighteen years at Two Rivers Printmaking Studio in Vermont. I am proficient in Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign as well as word processing software. I live in Wolfville, Nova Scotia with my daughter and three cats.
