Hi, I'm Mandy
Email Expert & Surface Pattern Designer
I've long had a love of art and a creative passion but it wasn't until the birth of my daughter that I decided to make art and design a large part of my career focus.
I learned to love creating as a small child, spending hours watching my grandmother crafting. I witnessed her enjoyment of the process and attention to the smallest of details. Following in her footsteps, I soon began making homemade cards and gifts for family members. As I grew up and transitioned to middle and high school, I still loved art and creating but as often happens, I enjoyed trying new things and ended up following my friends into sports. I still made the occasional time for art but it wasn't a focus. It wouldn't become a focus again until much later in my life.
​
After college, a much longed for move to New York had me falling in love with a new career: email marketing. At first the mix of creativity and geeky tech inspired and excited me but after ten years in the corporate world, I was desperate for a fresh start.


​I reconnected with my art during the pandemic and realized then that I wanted more of it in my life. Shortly thereafter I discovered the world of surface design and instantly knew it was for me. Then my daughter was born and I knew I needed to change my path to be able to spend more precious time with her.
​
Now I fill my days doing work I am proud of. I create art and surface designs inspired by my life in New York City. I've also taken my 10 years of corporate email marketing experience and shifted to provided smart and custom email marketing solutions for entrepreneurs and small businesses. This work lights me up and I am so very grateful to be doing it. Whether under the design or email umbrellas, I can't wait to see how I can support you.
