ABOUT

 

HI, I’M ZOË.

Thanks for visiting my website! I’m a letterpress and linocut printmaker, film photographer, and arts communicator located in East Lansing, Michigan.

I hold a bachelor of arts degree in Media and Information, with a concentration in Film and Media Production, and a minor in Documentary Production from Michigan State University. I’m currently pursuing a master of arts degree in Strategic Communication at MSU, as well as certificates in Digital Media and Organizational Communication for Leadership. I work on MSU’s campus as the Director of Communications for the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum, and I love the creativity each day brings.

Beyond my work in communications, marketing, and public relations, I am a Michigan Emmy Award-winning video editor and producer, with my films screened at international festivals and distributed worldwide. I’m happiest when I’m creating, and I’ve recently found a passion for letterpress and linocut printmaking. My boyfriend, Tad, and I print on a Chandler & Price jobbing press as Three Letter Press, where we combine linoleum block cuts with traditional, hand-set lead type for wedding invitations, stationary, passion projects, and more. As a film photographer, I’ve had the opportunity to grow my own business too—offering a thoughtful product line for analog and instant film photographers looking to digitize and archive their film photography.

In my spare time, you’ll find me enjoying time with our dog, Rocket, and cat, Sugar Magnolia, working on various house projects, or driving through the state with Tad, exploring nearly forgotten Michigan history.
