—also known as Miss K to my students.

I’m just a homeschooling (single) mom-turned-teacher, unintentional minimalist, and multi-passionate creative based in Austin, TX.

Welcome to my little home on the internet where I share my creative journey to personal and financial freedom.

As a Special Ed teacher-by-day and an artist-by-night, I offer cozy minimalist illustrations and products for teachers, moms, and sellers.

On the blog, you will find cozy and creative living (and teaching) tips on a budget. My focus is on creating spaces, systems, and resources that truly support your family, your students, and your life. My goal is to help you simplify and save time, money, and energy so that you can create freedom both inside and outside the classroom.

My superpower? Seeing the potential in every challenging situation, space, or forgotten treasure. From redesigning your life to repurposing common items that breathe new life into your home or classroom, I’ll help you reimagine your surroundings without breaking the bank.

Whether you’re redesigning your classroom, refreshing your routines, or trying to turn your creativity into income, I’ll help you find the beauty and potential in what you already have. 🎨 I’m passionate about using my creativity to teach others how to solve everyday problems in simple, sustainable ways, whether through illustration, space redesign, or creative ideas to improve your life.

💡 My mission?
To build a life of freedom through my creativity and show you that you can redesign your life, home, and classroom, one creative step at a time. 🎨

I believe creativity can heal, simplicity can set you free, and you don’t need a big budget to build a beautiful life.

So grab your art supplies (or a cup of tea!) and let’s create freedom together.
