More about Me

Four Little Birds Cakes and Bakes brings together three things I’ve always loved: baking, art, and making people feel celebrated.

​

It all started with a carrot cake—and a little determination. When I was a young girl, my mother told me I wasn’t old enough to bake a cake on my own. Naturally, I took that as a challenge. That first cake wasn’t a masterpiece, but it was delicious, and I was hooked.
 

My love of creating eventually led me to Naropa University, where I majored in Environmental Studies and minored in Visual Arts. Painting, sculpting, carving, and designing have always brought me joy. Today, cake is my favorite canvas.

​

While putting myself through college, I worked in restaurants, eventually holding roles ranging from dishwasher to Director of Operations. Those years taught me that hospitality lives in the details: listening closely, anticipating someone’s needs, and making them feel cared for. I bring that same approach to every cake I create.

​

After leaving restaurants in 2019 and finding my way into sales, I continued baking. During the pandemic, I made cakes for coworkers as a small way to bring people joy and connection. Then my coworker Paul asked me to create a cake for his daughter’s first birthday. Taking that design from a sketch to a centerpiece brought everything together: art, baking, hospitality, and the privilege of being part of someone’s special day.

​

That’s the heart of Four Little Birds. I create thoughtfully designed cakes that feel personal, taste delicious, and give your guests something to gather around. Whether you have a clear vision or just the beginnings of an idea, I’d love to help bring it to life.

​

When I’m not baking, you’ll find me spending time with my dog, running, gardening, making art, exploring Colorado, enjoying local restaurants, or discovering somewhere new.
