- As a designer I want to reflect God who designed it all so propitiously and with such thoughtful care.
- Biography
- I was born and grew up with two parents and two brothers; two eyes, two ears, two arms, two legs. I learned to walk and jump and be late for the school bus. When I was four I made sure I was going to heaven. When I was eight I started trying to figure out what that actually means. I never liked to brush my hair and suffered through junior high. We moved a lot. I had a mad crush on Ian Metzger but made sure he never knew it. Life was good. Then I flipped through an airplane SkyMall magazine and the world was brand new. I finished school and moved, this time of my own choosing. And then I started school all over again. Sometimes life takes longer than you think.
