1. Tell us about yourself! I run Round Robin Press, try to stay connected to what I’m working on and what’s in my future. My main focus with RRP is running a company that enables me to put my designs on lots of different surfaces while always putting the environment first when deciding what materials to use. I make letterpress plantable cards, art, and children’s books. 2. What inspires your work? Everything I see, hear, dream, talk, and eat! It’s not one thing I can peg but inspiration comes when I least expect it and other times, when I look for it. I can definitely say there is no scarcity of inspiration in my life. 3. What’s a perfect day for you? My most perfect day would be to have the morning to feel a sense of accomplishment with a project I’m working on and then spend the afternoon reading, swimming, playing with my family! 4. What’s your favorite animal? hmmm...that’s a hard one. I love them all. If I had to choose, pandas, monkeys, and cats are high on the list. 5. What would you like to be known for? Environmental positive change and having ideas that make people smile 6. If you could have superpowers, what would it be? I asked my kids what they thought my super powers should be and my four year old said “Rainbow Head!” Apparently Rainbow Head has the ability to turn everyone’s heads into rainbows, hmmm... I think I’ll go with the super power of bringing enemies peacefully together while simultaneously creating a rainbow in the background! 7. Tell us something random. REALLY random. Oh gosh, what would that be? I’ve always prided myself on my sense of direction but this past weekend, I’m embarrassed to say I got lost in the woods (a forest of tall trees with multiple intersecting trails) and it restored my faith in humanity by a ride from a family I did not know sent out to look for me, a cold water waiting for me from a stranger, and what had started as a hot challenging day ended with my family relieved and appreciating each other. This time, “lost in the woods” was no metaphor.
