Meryl has been a Colorado resident since the age of 10, after spending her early years moving every few years as a “military brat.”
When asked what she wanted to be when she grew up, she always said she wanted to be either a veterinarian or an artist. She spent her freshman year of college undeclared because she couldn’t choose between the two.After realizing she didn’t have the stomach for dissections, she decided on Graphic Design with a focus on animal causes. Through her studies, she discovered that the art of communicating a message through visuals is uniquely suited to giving a voice to those without one.
After earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts with a concentration in Graphic Design from Colorado State University in 2018, she has worked in graphic design, print production, media communications, and illustration. Her most formative experience was her internship at The Wildcat Sanctuary in Minnesota, where she was able to combine her passions in a meaningful way for the first time.
In her spare time, you can find Meryl making art, volunteering at her local animal shelter, wandering through the woods with her dogs—Ivy (a Miniature Australian Shepherd) and Zula (a Husky/Malamute), catching a musical, listening to true crime podcasts, or watching the latest animated series or film.
