My career started off in interior architecture and design. I have designed retail stores, hotels, offices, showrooms, marketing centers and private suites at sports stadiums. My interest in design is wholisitic – i come from a creative background, my mother is a textile designer and my father an engineer. I started my own firm a few years out of school. We evolved to become a multi-disciplinary design practice offering graphic design, interior and product design services.

Over the years I have had my own business, went back to school for my masters degree, worked in brand marketing design for a major footwear company, was creative director and new business developer for a contract textile company. And now I am back doing running my own business again.

Art of Navigation was started in 2004 and our team designs product for and markets two brands Imageglow® Candles and Modern Materials.

Imageglow® candles use a patented process to embed patterns and images in the wax wall of candles. The flame backlights the pattern and GLOWS when illuminated. Imageglow® has been featured in major publications such as Lucky, Home, Sunset, Organic Style, Real Simple, Country Living and Home Companion. We have over fifty patterns and colors in three sizes. We create private label patterns for Sanrio | Hello Kitty, Hallmark and other corporations and sell to major retailers such as Urban Oufitters, Coldwater Creek and boutique retailers around the country.

Modern materials created modern custom woven jacquard textiles for bag manufacturers, hotels, interior designers, corporations and retailers.

Our design and product development service can be for a specific item or a fully merchandised line of product in the home and decorative accents industry.

Our clients include: retailers, technology companies, brands, licensors, entertainment companies, wineries, restaurants, hotels, event planners, corporate HR and marketing departments, promotion companies.
