I design book covers and other graphic objects. My work explores the intersection of typography and materials. Many of the pieces shown here are collaborations with my husband Mitch Goldstein. We are based in Rochester, New York, USA.

I earned my BFA in Graphic Design from Rhode Island School of Design, and my MFA in Design/Visual Communications from Virginia Commonwealth University, School of the Arts. I have taught graphic design at Maryland Institute College of Art and Virginia Commonwealth University.
