Alex lives in the Hollywood neighborhood with her husband, two dogs, and three cats. She works from home as a graphic designer through her design studio Defteling Design. Alex is passionate about paper – as a matter of fact, she loves paper so much, she launched her own greeting card company in early 2007. While Defteling Design keeps her busy full-time, in her off hours she now designs and sells her own pretty paper products through Cecily Ink. When not working on either business, she enjoys riding her Dutch Oma bike down to the local farmers market or hanging out in the backyard on a sunny afternoon. Life doesn’t get any better!
