Why did you decide to join Tucker Publishing Group?
I have always enjoyed magazine and niche publication design work throughout my career. What better publication than your hometown magazine to design for?
What types of projects are your favorite to work on, and why?
I really enjoy the whole process from ad design to multiple page spreads. I like to organize and improve existing designs and starting from scratch. Really great photos get me excited and always enhance the layout โ and provide a lot of design cues. (Thank you, photographers!)
What has been your favorite magazine issue that TPG has published?
I really enjoy the Best of the City and City View issues.
If you could visit anywhere in the world, where would you go, and why?
I would like to visit any place that is different from where I reside. Iโve visited Italy and France, but I would jump at the chance to go anywhere in the U.S. and international. Travel makes us better humans, and we all need more of it!
What life experience would you choose to relive, and why?
Enjoying my children in their infancy again. They grow too fast.
