Our Chosen Child partners with adoptive families and professionals globally to create heartfelt profile books and outreach tools that support meaningful connection with birth parents. These booklets are often a family’s first introduction to an expectant parent, combining photos, writing, and design to share their story with honesty, warmth, and hope.

As Creative Director, I’ve guided the vision and growth of the brand, with a focus on thoughtful design, intentional storytelling, and personalized support. For nearly 15 years, I’ve had the privilege of helping families express who they are in ways that build trust and foster genuine connection.
