Since childhood a big passion of mine has been art and design. As an adult, I've been able to help clients and businesses through graphic design: creating logos, branding, marketing materials, advertisements, publications, etc. I am passionate about NIA because I see an opportunity to expand the ways that I can help other businesses, by connecting them with resources to be successful.

About me
Originally I'm from Corning, NY and moved everywhere from Muskogee, Oklahoma to Paris, France with my dad's career with Corning Glass. I received my undergraduate degree in Interior Design and was part of the Varsity Swim Team at Miami University in Ohio. After working at an architecture firm in Philadelphia for a year after college, I decided to study graphic design at The School of the Art Institute in Chicago. My design experiences in Chicago focused on the art, fashion, furniture and real estate industries. In 2001, I married Joe Knaack and in 2003 we moved to Charlotte, NC. We have two young adult children, Audrey & Stephen, who we adore! I just purchased an NIA franchise in 2024 and I'm excited about expanding on the ways that I can help businesses in Charlotte.
