Crystal is an illustrator & lettering artist based in Minneapolis/St.Paul. Lettering professionally since 1999, her signature lettering style helped launch the popular “modern calligraphy” trend.

Over the years her designs have graced magazine pages, a multitude of giftware & stationery products, advertising campaigns, logos & store fronts, art museum walls, tattooed bodies and an eclectic range of special events from swank Hollywood parties, Park Avenue soirées and Moroccan bashes to intimate mountain nuptials in a yurt.
