work together
What started as doodling in the margins of my college notebooks turned into becoming the token writer for all my friends. I made chalk board signs for baby showers and church events and one day a friend said "You know you could get paid for this, right?" I genuinely had no idea, but after finding a few other calligraphers who did calligraphy full time, I decided to jump head first and launch my business in 2021! Since then, I have refined my calligraphy skills and expanded my services so that I can write on almost any surface. It has been so much fun to grow this business and to be able to help make events more memorable for my clients. I would love to get to work with you and create some magic together!

a few of my favorite things
Since discovering calligraphy in 2015, I’ve found it to be a beautiful way to express creativity, unwind, and slow down. I love how lettering can transform an everyday item into a keepsake. Remember the excitement of finding your name on a keychain as a child? That’s the feeling I strive to create—because seeing your name written in elegant calligraphy is truly special.
Lets create something special together!

I am a Christian and my faith is the most important part of my life. My husband is the youth director at our church and I love getting to serve alongside him.
MY FAITH

During the day I work as a structural engineer, but when I am not working I love spending time with friends and family, going for runs, gardening, and cuddling with my dog, Emmett!
