Hello! I’m sending a happy little wave from the very eastern edge of Iowa, right next to the mighty Mississippi River. I am a wife to my husband of just over 20 years and have been a mother now for over 14 years to four lively children, three boys and one girl. Needless to say, there is no such thing as a dull moment in our home with so much energy circulating in the air! As a family, we tend to enjoy the great outdoors & quiet activities, including hiking, biking, reading and board games. When we need more excitement, we just try to annoy each other!
I enjoy the creative side of life with passions for card making, photography and quilting. I work part time as a registered dental hygienist and, in recent years, started a small family/child photography business. For the most part, however, I am a domestic engineer as we raise our children. Card making came into the picture in my 20’s (which is now over 20 years ago…) when I met some college buddies who introduced me to the idea. Over the years, my style has evolved quite a bit and today I absolutely love clean and simple design! I am so thrilled to be joining the Cat Pack and all the amazing talent here! Let the fun begin!
