I appreciate clients who value and can recognize good design. Mediocrity is not my thing. I take pride in my ability to deliver contemporary, creative and relevant design solutions to any project. I listen, I envision and I make it happen.”

Through humble beginnings, Farkas discovered her talent as an artist — a product of small town America, she grew up in Frederick, Maryland, “I was always creative and was very lucky to discover my talent in my early years. I never lost focus of my goal to contribute to society through art and design.” From Frederick to Philly, Farkas graduated from Moore College of Art with a degree in Graphic Design. After college her journey continued north, where her career began in New York City.  

“A good designer must always be an artist first. What I enjoy most about what I do, is that every day is a new artistic adventure and I am always learning. Creativity is one of the greatest pleasures in life and I seek to share it with, and to inspire, all of those who enter into my world.” 

Farkas lives in Northern New Jersey with her husband. She has 3 adult children. In her spare time, she loves to draw, paint, swim and learn new things.
