How I Got Involved in Letterpress Printing: I recently took
a series of letterpress classes in Chicago. I havenŽt formally started doing letterpress yet, because I just received my vandercook
from Canada, but IŽll be ready to go shortly. I have a couple of business partners in my letterpress studio: Luisa & Isabel
Prado. We are 3 sisters. Two graphic designers and one architect.
Presses & Equipment: Vandercook IV
Work History: IŽve
been working as a graphic designer for 10 years. About three years ago my business partner and I created a line of handmade wedding
invitations. The moment that we discovered letterpress we fell in love with it .Shortly afther that, we decided to include the equipment
in our studio.
Education: bachelors degree in Graphic Design
Other Interests/Hobbies: I love to travel all over the
world and this hobby has been a great influence for my job. I love learning languages as well, IŽm fluent in english, italian and
spanish and I studied french for a couple of years.
