About Natalie Jean

and Suitcase Art

 
 

I am a recent graduate of UW-Oshkosh with a BA in Journalism and English.  I now live, work, and play in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  I love thrift stores, and using things that have been used before.  The best part is the thrill of the hunt and never knowing what you could come home with.


So far my career path has taken many twists and turns.  I worked two years as a photographer for the student run paper at the university - The Advance Titan.  I’ve spent one summer printing other people’s photos at the Target photo lab in Oshkosh.  I have worked also as a nanny for a handful of families, and I absolutely adore children.  I see everything as a chance to play and explore and learn.  Additionally there have been quite a few other short stints in various occupations.


I’m newly married to the love of my life - a dorky soccer-playing German teacher named Richard.  We are making our life together and are searching out a house in Milwaukee to make a more permanent home.

About Suitcase Art

Suitcase Art was born out of my passion for photography and love of vintage suitcases. One of my favorite art projects is to modify or refinish old suitcases - some of which will end up on Etsy soon!
