I was raised by a printer and a graphic artist in Michigan. Growing up immersed in an atmosphere revolving around printing and design, I began to naturally develop a good eye for solid design concepts at an early age. My upbringing provided me opportunities to participate in classes and seminars that built both my skills in and awareness of the graphic arts industry. I worked in a print shop bindery all throughout junior high, high school and college, rounding out my design skills with a solid understanding of printing and binding processes. I am passionate about using my talents to help anybody I can, always striving to improve and expand my knowledge in ways that can further that goal. Whether it be professional graphic design work or commissioned art projects, I enjoy the variety of everyday challenges that provide me with chances to learn new things every day which help me to improve my abilities.

What is WicklowArt, exactly?
In my college years I spent a great deal of time on a collection of illustrations that were centered around a county in Ireland known for its beautiful gardens and history. As I pondered the name under which I could sell the variety of art I produce, I kept coming back to the name Wicklow. In its simplest form, it represents hours of hard work, burning the wick low, long into the night. A lot of heart, soul and dedication goes into preparing every piece to find a good home, providing smiles for many years to come. The same goes for every logo, sticker or poster design I think up and put into print. Since not everything I do is a craft, or a painting, or a logo or poster design, the name that has come to encompass all of my work is WicklowArt. Thank you for supporting and enjoying my work. I'm extremely grateful to be able to make a living creating things which help make this world a better place, and I hope that your curiosity brings you back here often!
