It started with a dream ( and a lot of hard work) and it has turned into the little company that could! joy & wonder theatre creates both productions and classes that awaken the senses, imagination and playful natures of students and explorers with our brand of immersive theatre. In immersive theatre a world is brought to life before your very eyes that you are invited to play inside. All the voices in the room are listened to and because of that storylines may be changed and shaped by the people in that particular audience on that particular day. We ask that everybody enter a space of play in order to discover how to use our skills of empathy, deep thought and total joy to create a unique theatrical experience in both classrooms and production venues. Come join us as either a student, an audience member ( explorer) or both! Located in and around North Portland we look forward to interacting and creating with you!

Hello, I’m an independent Graphic Designer with over 17 years of experience in the design industry. Along the way I have picked up several awards in book arts and graphic design. My work is often informed by my diverse educational background. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Electronics, Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design, Certificate in Interior Design and Post Baccalaureate in Book Arts.
I’m passionate about design. Good design. Design that makes you think. Design that connects. Design that evokes an emotional response. I love to push boundaries and think outside the box. I love to create. To innovate. I love experimenting with new materials, ideas and processes, always striving to find new ways of approaching a problem, finding new solutions. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don’t, but I am satisfied for having tried. I accept my failures as a part of the process, learn from them and move on. But when I am done, I would have created something that’s original and fresh. Design to me is like a journey, a process, and an evolution of form and ideas.
