I grew up in Springville, Utah.  Spent much of my young life living in the same house.  I have two older brothers and a sister that is 10 years younger.  We grew up in a tiny old house which had a really steep staircase great for blanket sliding.  When I was 21 we moved into a new house my dad build 10 whole blocks away.  Here is where I grew up on Google Earth     .....Hi Mom!

#2: I attended college at Ringling School of Art and Design, and Brigham Young University.    I wanted to work for Disney doing art since I was 13.  I grew up doing anything creative.  I spent a semester at Ringling and then while I was home for the summer I took a class on Children's book illustration at BYU and decided to stay and finish there.  It was mostly due to the teacher of the class Bethanne Anderson.  The childrens book style ended up helping me get into the Disney Company.  I would still like to Illustrate children's books.  I just need to find the time, I have plenty in my head.

#3:  I have lived in Cali for almost 4 years now....I first came out here for an internship in 2003.  I've worked for Disney since I got here.  2 years ago in 2005 I met my husband Chad.  We met at church....I decided I needed to stay away from him, but he was persistant, and in Dec 2006 we got married.  Now we are pretty much inseprable.  (photo by Davina Fear)
