Original, inspired, fearless.
which word best describes you and why?
My word is INSPIRED.
What inspires me is my family. My parents were artists and I am always drawn to their work. In fact, my logo is a modified version of my father’s 1950-60’s advertising agency: Almeida Advertising Art Associates. My father was one of my biggest supporters and cheer leaders, never letting me rest on my laurels but always asking me “what’s next?”. I think he would be thrilled that I am using a modernized version of the logo he designed for himself. My mother, now retired, was a professor at Massachusetts College of Art and Design. She taught fashion illustration and is also an award winning painter. Basically, anything she touches is a work of art.
I am also inspired by my clients. We work together to showcase their individual personalities, in a relaxed, interactive environment where people feel free to be themselves and have FUN.
My community inspires me. Living in beautiful, historic downtown Portsmouth NH,
I am continually inspired, not only my surroundings, but the community of creatives that live here. I can’t imagine living anywhere else.
