If cartophilia is a disease which causes its victims to be obsessed with the study of maps, I have been stricken with this since very early childhood. It began with my own family and their burning desire to travel.

My first experience with maps was as a small child. My parents would put a map in front of me to keep me from asking “How much farther ‘til we get there?” as we headed down the road. As a family, we travelled extensively which required a lot of time in the car. The tourist map, you could say, was my entertainment.

I also have a deep affection for drawing and watercolour. This combined with my love of maps lead to the discovery of cartography. After the completion of a university degree in geography I went on to achieve a Cartographic Technologist diploma. From there I began working in various positions as both a cartographer and geographic information specialist.

The dream to start a cartography business was realized through the opening of Creative Cartographics. My focus is to provide my clients with beautifully designed, affordable and unique cartographic products. My devotion to geographical sciences combined with my passion for the graphic arts will allow me to provide a comprehensive service, specializing in stylish, quality map products.
