After converting to Catholicism in 2011, the birth of my second child, and 7 years practicing architecture in Austin, Texas, I decided to strike out on my own to pursue my passion for art and graphic design. Immediately I was hired as a contract worker at our parish to design the weekly bulletins and monthly newsletter and a contractor for another company in Phoenix, Arizona. I continue to pursue graphic design with clients nationwide in both the commercial, small business, and nonprofit sectors.

In the past year I have also opened an Etsy storefront and a Peter’s Square shop to sell liturgical calendars, sacred art calendars, fine art, and jewelry.

My desire for creative pursuits is coupled with my desire to serve God and others through design.

Where can you be found on social media?

You can usually find me on Instagram @telosart

Facebook: Telos Design

or at either of my websites:

www.liturgicalcalendars.com or www.telos.design

What type of wine is your favorite?

Italian wine would likely be my preference! But my husband and I both enjoy all the new varieties of hard cider as well.

What is your favorite chocolate?

Again, my husband has introduced me to world of dark chocolate. If it has orange or caramel in it, I’m sold.

 

What is your favorite prayer and/or quote?

As a convert, the rosary is still unfamiliar to me, though I appreciate it’s beauty and power. But I probably love the Divine Mercy Chaplet most of all.

What type of wine is your favorite?

Sweet if it’s white, dry if it’s red! But really, I’ll take a neat finger of amaretto or really really peaty whiskey over wine most days.

 

What is your favorite chocolate?


Something dark with sea salt. Or caramel. Or lightly raspberry flavored. Just not white chocolate. Yuck.

 

What is your favorite prayer and/or quote?

 Right now my two favorites are by St. Francis de Sales:

“There is nothing so strong as gentleness; nothing so gentle as true strength”

and

“You learn to love by loving.”

I’ve been working to build a screenwriting career for the past six years, but advancing in it is a very slow process. So in the meantime, I share my passion for film and TV by writing reviews from a Catholic perspective on my blog, Thorne in the Flesh.

What type of wine is your favorite?

I used to like Sweet Red and Moscato best, but lately I’ve started to like Merlot.

 

 

What is your favorite chocolate?

A purple-packaged Austrian chocolate called Milka – I discovered it during my semester abroad in Austria while I was pursuing my bachelor’s at Franciscan University. The Oreo-cream-filled one is the best!

 

What is your favorite prayer and/or quote?

“Do not be afraid. Do not be satisfied with mediocrity. Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” – JPII, Inaugural Homily.

 

What services do you provide?

I am passionate about creating uplifting and worthwhile film and TV, and therefore I am always open for hire by anyone who has the funds and the means to produce such content. On a more realistically practical level, I’m available for freelance website content writing and sponsored posts, as well as speaking engagements on media/film/TV related topics. I also do screenplay coverage and writing consultation for any fellow writers out there. Contact me for rates!

We've been watching THE CHOSEN . . . Why? Well b We've been watching THE CHOSEN . . .

Why?  Well because I could not watch yet another episode of America's Funniest Home Videos (now called AFV or as my 5 year old son calls it "epic fails").

I will be honest with you, I watched the first episode years ago and thought, "this is boring".

But I kept hearing about it and all I heard were positive things.

I watched Season 2 begin Live on Facebook, and I did like it - but I didn't watch any more than those two LIVE episodes that I can remember.

I have been wanting to watch it, but just couldn’t find the motivation- then I thought I would enjoy it more if my husband and I watched it together. 
Then thought, this is the perfect show to watch as a family!

When I was growing up, there were certain nights we all watched the same show:
The Dukes of Hazard
Family Ties, Growing Pains, and dare I say it - The Cosby Show?
My younger siblings would watch what was known as TGIF - Full House and Family Matters

Today, we have way to many choices.  Everyone wants a turn to pick a show.
This show, The Chosen, is bringing us together as a family.

My 5 year old asks, "Can we watch The Chosen tonight?"
My 10 year old says he doesn't like it . . .then he scoots up next to me and says he actually does like it.

My daughter falls asleep on my lap while we watch it.

And I'm happy to report, I've laughed out loud a few times!  I'm also looking forward to watching it again with my family (we sit down a couple times a week to watch an episode!)

Have you watched it?  Tell us in the comments!

Prayers that filled my head and heart when struggl Prayers that filled my head and heart when struggling with infertility:

🌹 lots of novenas to Saint Therese’
✏️ many letters to God in my journal… some addresses to Jesus, some to Our Loving Father… others, I can’t recall. Lots of pouring my heart out.
📝 Letters to Saints… I remember writing to Saint Nicholas… patron Saint of children and honestly, infertility is extra heavy around Christmas… so many dreams would feel out of reach. My heart believes in miracles and treasures memories of jolly old Saint Nick… it just made sense to me.
📿 many Rosaries with friends 
And one more thing that I can recall at this moment…
A written description of the children I envisioned being mine.
There were 3.
One loved science. One had a very special bond with my brother. I don’t recall being specific about boys v girls.
But I described them.
Maybe that was how I surrendered my prayer to God.
If you are struggling with infertility… never give up on prayer.

There’s a beautiful song you might have heard ti There’s a beautiful song you might have heard titled In Jesus Name (God of Possible)
This song was created from an entry in Katy Nichole's prayer journal!
It has gone on to impact millions of people worldwide, and that number continues to grow every day!

I highly recommend listening to this song… and maybe even writing part of the words - if not all- in your prayer journal.

I had to share this with you! Please give prayer journaling a try… God only know what beautiful words and melodies will be revealed to you!

I pray for your healing
That circumstances would change
I pray that the fear inside would flee in Jesus name

I pray that a breakthrough would happen today
I pray miracles over your life in Jesus name, in Jesus name

I speak the name of all authority
Declaring blessings, every promise
He is faithful to keep
I speak the name no grave could ever hold
He is greater, He is stronger
He's the God of possible

I pray for your healing
That circumstances would change
I pray that the fear inside would flee in Jesus name
I pray that a breakthrough would happen today
I pray miracles over your life in Jesus name
In Jesus name

Come believe it
Come receive it
Oh, the power of His Spirit is now forever yours
Come believe it
Come receive it
In the mighty name of Jesus, all things are possible
I pray for your healing
That circumstances will change
I pray that the fear inside will flee in Jesus name
