About

I Believe Our Inner World Creates Our Outer World

I felt deeply called to find a way to use my skills and abilities to give back, and it has become the most transformational chapter of my life.

Life is a journey filled with endless opportunities to learn and grow. When we open ourselves to possibilities, we invite transformation and unlock the beauty of what’s possible.

As a lifelong learner and lover of books, my artwork reflects so many of my passions: art, psychology, wellness, mindset work, manifestation, mantras, and affirmations. 

Every piece is created with the intention to support the mind, body, and soul.

Through Purposeful Dreamer, I’ve built a space where I can give back, share my journey, and connect with other Purposeful Dreamers seeking inspiration and self-transformation.

On a Mission to Inspire, Support, and Give Back

Each product I design carries a message—to inspire joy, peace, and the courage to follow your dreams at any stage of life. These creations are personal reminders of the lessons and perspectives that have shaped my journey, and I hope they bring the same sense of inspiration to you.

Though I’ve been an artist my entire life (my first project was a kindergarten mural!), it wasn’t until I turned 35 that I truly embraced my identity as an artist. This shift transformed how I see myself and my purpose, leading to the creation of Purposeful Dreamer.

With over a decade of experience in entrepreneurship, HR, and customer service, I’ve poured all my skills into creating a brand that blends art, heart, and service.

Committed to Sustainability and Creativity

At Purposeful Dreamer, sustainability is woven into everything I do. I’ve partnered with Printful, an on-demand printing service, to minimize overproduction and reduce waste. By producing only what’s ordered, we lower our environmental footprint while delivering high-quality, meaningful designs.

Other sustainability practices include:

• Eco-Friendly Packaging: Whenever possible, we use recycled and plastic-free materials for packaging.

• Upcycled Creations: Unique, one-of-a-kind pieces crafted from repurposed materials, giving them new life and purpose.

• Green Inspiration: Each design is thoughtfully created to inspire not only transformation in your life but also positive change for our planet.

By choosing Purposeful Dreamer, you’re not only supporting a small business but also joining a movement of intentional living and mindful choices that benefit our world. Learn more about our sustainability practices here. 

Collaborating to Give Back

Giving back is at the heart of everything I do. I actively collaborate with other artists and small businesses to celebrate creativity and personal growth. By working together, we uplift each other's purpose and support a shared vision of empowerment and inspiration.

I’m also committed to bringing more creative voices into the Purposeful Dreamer store, offering a platform to showcase the unique work of others. This collaboration allows me to share diverse talents with our community, amplifying the beauty and creativity that exists in the world.

Are You a Purposeful Dreamer?

I believe we all have gifts to share with the world. Whether it’s following your dreams, inspiring others, or simply creating moments of joy, I’m here to remind you that it’s never too late to dream with purpose.
