Let me introduce myself! I am married to my husband, Bradley. We just celebrated our 6 year wedding anniversary. I am shocked how much time flies! Together we have a sassy, 5 year old, daughter, Zoe. Zoe's personality is exactly like mine. I am raising me. Sometimes I don't know if that is good or bad. For now, let's stick with good. 

​

Outside of Kind and Brave Designs, I am a full-time, senior director of a day camp. My favorite hobbies include playing board games, hand lettering, graphic design, taking skill share courses, and going on vacations! A vacation isn't a vacation if I have to bring a jacket! 

 

So how did Kind and Brave Designs start? Well, I can thank COVID for that. In fact, it's probably the only thing I can thank COVID for, am I right? Quarantine allowed me to focus on my family while working from home and it gave me time to find a hobby.

 

I have always been creative but never really put it to use outside of my professional career. The last decade I have spent hundreds of hours working, and when adding a husband and baby in the mix I never really made time for myself. Again, thanks to COVID, that changed. I asked for an iPAD for my birthday, downloaded the Procreate app and started from there. I focused on designing stickers for water bottles and have been hooked ever since.

 

So here I am. Two years into my creative journey and I now have a business Instagram page, followers (woohoo), an Etsy Shop, and now selling at local craft fairs and festivals! I am so glad you are here reading this. I hope you continue this journey with me. Buckle up, it's going to be a wild ride.
