Creative Aging: Telling Stories Through Art and Music
I’ve spent most of my life in printshops. My career has been in local printshop graphics—helping people turn their words, designs, and ideas into something they could hold in their hands.

A journal entry from 1973. A faded Polaroid of your first garage band. A poem you wrote and tucked into a cookbook your daughter now owns. For decades, those pieces of life—the letters, the lyrics, the memories—sat in drawers, on shelves, in forgotten folders. But today, they’re not just keepsakes. Thanks to tools like Suno,…
