It's so nice to meet you!

I believe that creativity and human connection are the keys to feeling fulfilled and content in the busy world that surrounds us. I founded Mostly Cloudy Paper Co. in 2022 because I wanted to share this with others. We all want someone to think of us. All it takes is a card and a few kind words to brighten someone's day.

I find my greatest inspiration in the imperfections of my natural surroundings. I adore my garden, reading lots and lots of books, the outdoors, good food, time spent in solitude, community, and anything related to weather. Despite living in sunny California, cloudy and rainy days are my favorite.

When I'm not working in my bedroom corner "studio," you can find me listening to jazz music, making pizza from scratch, immersing myself in a 1,000 piece puzzle, finding the next best deli sandwich, tending to my passion fruit vine, and taking care of my Little Free Library.

I live with my beautiful family of humans, cats and houseplants in Redondo Beach, California.
