Patti has been creative her entire life. Her father was a gifted artist and designer who inspired her to take art classes from a very early age.

After graduating with a degree in Fashion Design from The University of Texas, Patti began her professional career designing clothing, accessories and costumes for major apparel companies and prime time television series.

After relocating to Miami, she began painting and slowly transitioned into illustration and surface pattern design. Patti’s background in design, retail and manufacturing provides her with a unique perspective on not only what informs a product’s aesthetic, but also what makes it more marketable.

She has been published in the following magazines: Somerset Studio, Art Journaling, Where Women Create, and Where Women Create Business. She also appears in the book A World of Artist Journal Pages (230 Artists-30 Countries).
