Hello!

I am a surface pattern designer based in New York City. I have a passion for elevating the ordinary with beautiful patterns and illustrations.

I started my career as a graphic designer in the children's book department of Random House. From there I went on to discover my passion for surface pattern design. After gaining valuable experience working in-house at Anne Klein and Liz Claiborne I returned to my first love: the baby and children's market. During my extensive freelance career, I developed a deep love and understanding of this market. I have had the pleasure of seeing my art featured on fabric, home decor, paper products, and apparel at major retailers such as Fabric.com, Macy's, Babies R Us, Sears and Costco.

My goal is to help your products fly off the shelves today and become the treasured family heirlooms of tomorrow. 

If you'd like to see my latest designs, license or purchase my work, please email me, I'd love to hear from you! kjcsurfacedesign@gmail.com
