Personal:
I currently live in Springfield, IL with my husband, Sean and our 2 yellow labradors named Butch and Cassady. I still love the challenges of freelance design when time allows and donate as much time as I can to help local pet shelters. There is a special place in my heart for helping the shelters. I maintain the Benld Pet Shelter's website-you can check out the site at www.benldadoptapet.org. I do love walking the dogs with Sean every morning and night of the year, gardening and planting roses in the summer, and watching my favorite St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium.

I still remain in close contact with my SIUC design alumni (the blue barracks group)! I also keep in contact with many high school friends, although most of us are miles apart now.

Feel free to drop me a line, and I will contact you soon!
