about me

 

Hi! I’m Christie.

I started Letters to Berk in 2021 after discovering calligraphy in 2019 and falling in love (like the completely obsessed, shoot for the stars, over the moon kind of love).

With a lifetime of creative experience and a professional background in sales, operations, and corporate event planning, I know what it takes to deliver a top tier experience with my art.

Each piece of art I create is fueled by a passion for inspiring lasting impressions and building connections. I can’t wait to work with you to create an experience that is true to you and makes your guests feel extra special!
