About the Author

After a successful career in corporate communications and marketing, the author became the principal of Flying Cloud Design, a graphic design studio specializing in visual solutions for small businesses, non-profits, and public agencies. Her work has included everything from logos and branding to interpretive graphics for the White Mountain National Forest — where her love of design met her passion for the outdoors.

She is the author of The Quick Guide to Logo Design and Got You Covered: Creating Great Book Covers, both written to help creatives and self-publishers bring their visions to life with professional polish.

Now retired, she spends her time gardening, playing the ukulele, and enjoying the slower rhythms of life — while still finding joy in helping others grow their creative projects from seed to flourish.
