Purpose of River Dee Designs
Inspired by legends and lore from the River Dee, we create written
and digital artworks
that comfort and encourage clients where they live and work.

“People will forget . . . what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Maya Angelou
That is why the purpose of my work, whether it is written, spoken or digitally painted - is to infuse the facts of history with personal experiences at the emotional level.
As a result of being raised in a service-oriented family, I met and learned from experts around the world.
At the age 16, I left the US to study for a year as an exchange student in Germany. I returned to America to earn a BA degree in foreign languages and an MA in Communication Arts.
After graduation, I became a teacher, and my career morphed to include leadership positions in corporate training and media, government administration, non-profit management and advocacy. In every job, I worked with teams to empower goals and communicate ideas through written and visual works.
In all of my work, I strive to reveal the truth of facts as I've found them – and how those facts made people feel.
