Testimonials

I HIGHLY recommend Vanessa!!! I was raised by my grandfather and knew my mother. But I have always been curious about my father and my background. Vanessa helped me figure it out. She provided me with information about potential family members. After a DNA test, I was finally able to connect with my biological father, older brother, and sister after 40 years of dreaming about doing so! I will forever say that Vanessa is determined to find answers. She has earned and deserves high praise!!!

I engaged Vanessa to prepare a set of genealogical charts, maps, and assorted other illustrations for a genealogy I was publishing. She was easy to collaborate with, adhered to the overall project schedule, and delivered artwork that exceeded expectations. There are plenty of illustrators you can find online, but few that also have expertise in genealogy. You would not hire someone ignorant of chemistry to illustrate a chemistry textbook, so why would you hire a non-genealogist to illustrate a genealogy? I would definitely work with her again.

Vanessa has a very unique set of skills: those of a designer and those of a genealogist. It gives her the ability to create beautiful, keepsake family histories that are based on solid research and an eye for bringing a family to life.
