Growing up with an artist as a mom, we spent weekends at museums. Art has always been an essential part of my every day. My birthday gifts were always paint or drawing supplies. Our bookshelves were filled with artist books.

I’ve been circling around one question for years: how do I make art my career? It has been a journey through teaching in NYC public schools, working in higher ed, receiving a master’s, and now finally, taking my own approach.

Crown Peak Press is my way of infusing art into my everyday. It’s a dream to take my clients’ ideas and bring them to life through letterpress and illustration. There is nothing quite like transforming one of my designs into a tangible representation of somebody’s love, accomplishment, or celebration.
