ABOUT ME
I was surrounded by creativity, growing up. I constantly made and created. By the time I was ready for college I knew I wanted to be a designer. I received my Bachelor of Fine Art from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD) in 1987, where I gained a solid visual communications foundation, the keystone for all graphic design.
I found that I enjoy change and soon became a freelancer, finding work on my own and through placement agencies. It was great…never in one place too long and gathering an enormous amount of knowledge along the way. I took computer courses to keep up-to-date on the ever-changing world of technology and design, and I learned a bit about the runnings of some of our great Twin Cities businesses (US Bank, Chronimed, Augsburg Publishers, NordicTrack, Wells Fargo) while working as a freelancer. Then in 2002, I started LaChapelle Design Works. I am a solopreneur, working for other small and medium businesses, helping them look good and communicate visually. I love it, and can’t imagine doing anything else. What sets me apart from other design agencies is that I understand the smaller sized client because I am one! I work to get to know what you need and what you’re looking to accomplish. I am prompt, will return your phone calls and emails and will work with you as a team, and won’t charge you an arm and a leg.
