She has an extensive background in graphic design and illustration and collaborates on all projects. She holds a Degree in Media and Culture and a Diploma in Graphic Design from the University of the Fraser Valley.

After graduation she was recruited back to her hometown of Chilliwack to work with the City on in the design and development of their website. In 2000 she began a career in offset print design and illustration along side Geoff.

Her recent transition to semi‑competitive, ultra endurance running is a reflection of her disciplined and focused personality.
