I have to say that I am such a lucky person when it comes to my career. I honestly LOVE what I do. Getting paid is just a bonus. So waking up everyday and turning on my computer in my pajamas is definitely not a hard thing for me to do. =)

I started web and graphic design in 2001 in Southern California, but have always been delving in art since I was a little girl. I was a former model and knew that I needed a website to showcase my portfolio for everyone to be able to easily access and see my work. I found a company and paid them top dollar and the end result was nowhere near what I wanted. So I figured, you want something done right, do it yourself. So I started buying web design books, software and spending hours reading tutorials online. Eventually people started asking who did my website, and I was proud to say that I did it... then the work just started coming out of nowhere. I figure, why not? I love doing it and it makes me money too? Jackpot!...and the rest is history.

I've worked in New York for the past 8 years and have gained some of my most loyal clients here. I'm constantly working with new clients and design studios from all over the United States, providing them with web design and development, flash banners, updates, photo retouching, hosting and print work. I've worked on the design and build of static sites, wordpress sites, flash sites, flash banners, facebook pages, business cards and much more.

As of October 2011, I am now an official wordpress tutorial author at one of Envato's family sites: http://wp.tutsplus.com/. Much more to come!
