What is your job outside of CP?
I'm a freelance artist, CafePress plays a big role in my 9 to 5!

What are your hobbies and passions?
Cooking and baking, gardening, reading, traveling, camping (real camping, in a tent!), this list could go on, but I'll spare you the monotony...I like pretty much everything. Carpe Diem, baby!

What is your "expert" area/what areas do you find yourself most helpful in?
I help out where I can, but I'll never call myself an expert...there is always room for improvement! I tend to lurk around the General Help Forum and the HTML/Premium Shop Forum.

Tell us about your shop(s)...
Ha! My shops are constantly going through puberty and I consider them all works in progress. (FYI: I have no intention of ever completing them...I get bored very easily and like to stir things up.) SEO is a completely wasted on me...somehow that donot fairy still finds me though.

What's going on in the background while you work on your shop? Music, TV, dead silence?
I can't function without some sort of noise, but my music ranges from traffic to crickets, and train whistles to NPR. Occasionally, I'll get stuck on a CD and keep it on repeat for days on end...man, those suckers get hot!

While at your day job, are you guilty of being on the CafePress Community Forums?
CafePress is an important part of my livelihood so I try to peek in on the forums whenever I can. Life sometimes has other ideas though.

Do you prefer unicorns or Pegasus?
Pegasus! Cue flash-back sequence of unwrapping my very own fuzzy orange Pegasus on my 5th birthday. Too bad stuffed animals aren't immortal.

Do you have any hidden talents?
Wouldn't you like to know...

What inspires your designs?
My interests, friends & family, life in general, and (of course) color! Rainbow Brite ain't got nothin' on me!

Random fact:
Fluffer-Nutters are my all time favorite sandwich!

Animal Friendly (Vegan) Fluffer-Nutter Recipe:
- Whole Wheat Bread
- Natural Peanut Butter
- Ricemellow Cream
