An Introduction

I am a writer and artist living in New York City since graduating with a degree in journalism and studio art from the University of Denver. By trade I am a publication designer, and most of my professional career has been in the Catholic Press, where my creative direction has placed my projects in the national awards spectrum for the last five years.

I am also an avid language learner and the owner of the world’s most ferocious cat.

Outside the nine-to-five I am preoccupied with my great loves of nonfiction writing and travel photography. These will soon be allotted much more of my time, however, as I prepare to give up the office life and marry my beloved New Yorker. Ironically, we will be leaving the rat-race of Manhattan to a place that’s just like where I came from.

Stay tuned for additions to the Anaframe site from our new home in the beautiful Adirondack Mountains. Or send me a note on my connect page.

In creating this site, I’d like to acknowledge the real-life people whose beautiful and distinct personalities inspire me every day, including my sister Emily, David Hilgier, Chelsea Lucas Tillman and Anthony Tramontano.

I have had many teachers and guides who have given me the most wonderful gifts of all, including my parents Jack and Carol, Eleonora Zilio-Miller, Luc Beaudoin, John Woods, Bethany Kriegsman and Paul Ghiglieri.
