Hi! I'm Renée...
I've had a variety of careers over the years, but ART has always been a passion of mine.
I was blessed to have many art teachers & creatives in my life who appreciated my curiosity and hunger for expression, and who exposed me to so many wonderful techniques, media and platforms.
​
Professionally, I started off as an entry-level silkscreen printer at a business called Cyrk in Gloucester, MA. You may not recognize their name, but you've probably worn several of their designs (more on that in a bit)!
​
During my time at Cyrk, I moved on from the production department to the art department, taking on roles of: typesetter, illustrator, color separator, and graphic designer.
​
I collaborated on designs for t-shirts & promotional products for brands like: Reebok, Ellesse, Fila, M & M Mars Company, Diadora, Admiral, Apex One and Philip Morris (Marlboro), as well as countless t-shirt designs you might have bought at vacation spots all around the country.
​
Several years later, I was recruited to join the art department at No Fear to design & produce their sales catalogs, where I quickly picked up print production skills. I also designed countless decals and logo designs for ball-cap embroideries.
​
I began exploring web and brand design for my own personal training business (Corporate Triathlete) and cat blog (Tulip Kitty) back in the early 2000s, and absolutely loved it. I have continued the exploring and experimenting ever since.
​
These days I do the bulk of my professional creative work for Dr. Kellee Rutley and her Health & Wellness Entrepreneurs, which includes: opt-in page design for summits and masterclasses, free gifts for client attraction, and brand development for better connecting with ideal clients.
With Kellee's mentorship, I've learned a tremendous amount about marketing messaging and understanding the thoughts, feelings and actions of ideal clients. This has catapulted my ability to tailor page designs to move an ideal client into action.
