At the age of 25 I started a custom art & design business that grew from word-of-mouth to having now painted for clients in around 20 states and a handful of countries. I also worked with a team for one of the largest crafting store corporations in the nation developing web, social, packaging & advertising imagery campaigns and had my hand in the process from concept to delivery of imagery! As our family grows my desire to be closer to home has as well and I decided to expand my work from Emmy Jade Designs to The Root Creative Co.! With my background in Public Relations and Event Planning, coupled with my love for all things Art and Design, I developed a passion for helping others grow their businesses! I come from a family whose bread and butter was our small business and have a great desire to see others succeed in theirs, because when it comes down to it, it's what allows us to spend more time doing what we love with who we love! Whether I'm painting, illustrating or helping you grow your business, I pray that my work impacts your life in a meaningful and positive way!
