While working as a graphic designer in Atlanta, Amanda worked on national accounts such as Days Inn, General Tire, General Electric, AT&T, and Turner Network Television’s Cartoon Network. It was a tremendous opportunity, which allowed Amanda to quickly find national accounts to work on when she moved to Palo Alto, California in 1992.
Amanda then accepted a position as Art Director for Alaska’s largest ad agency in 1994 and then became Art Director for Alaska Magazine, until she decided to start her own graphic design business in 1996, creating award-winning designs for both large corporate accounts and smaller “mom & pop” accounts.
Amanda is also the author of one of Alaska’s best selling cookbooks: Every which way with Rhubarb — a 168-page rhubarb cookbook which she published in 2003.
By 2008, after surviving breast cancer, Amanda realized that life is too short and too long not to be doing what she really loves to do which is expressing her creativity in a personal way. So she began focusing her efforts on creating and sharing her artwork through galleries and through national product lines. It is with great pleasure that Amanda continues to share her art and life experience, and she hopes that viewers take with it a renewed sense of curiosity and joy.
