Hey, There! I'm Tiffany, a Luxury Calligrapher and Engraver and creative force behind SLM & Design Co., based in Southcentral Pennsylvania.
I live in the heart of this beautiful region with my fiancé, Shaquille, and our two beautiful children, Layla and Milo.
My journey into the world of calligraphy and hand lettering began during my time working as a Physical Therapist Assistant. I started creating seasonal chalkboard signs to brighten our waiting room, and it rekindled a passion for art that I had set aside over the years. I even painted a wall mural to promote our Cancer Rehab Program, which further inspired me to explore creative outlets.
A simple yet powerful comment from a co-worker —
“You are in the wrong business” — sparked something in me.
That moment, paired with a deep desire to be more present with my family, gave me the courage to pursue my love of calligraphy, engraving, and design further.
At SLM & Design Co., I believe the magic is in the details. Whether I’m hand-lettering an acrylic welcome sign, engraving a perfume bottle on-site at a luxury brand event, or painting a custom signature drink sign that features your beloved pet, each piece is created with purpose, precision, and heart.
I proudly serve couples and clients across Southcentral Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Washington DC, Maryland, and Virginia, and I love working closely with them to create one-of-a-kind keepsakes and signage that reflect their story and style.
From elegant seating charts and hand-calligraphed place cards to live calligraphy activations that wow your guests, my goal is to turn your vision into timeless, meaningful designs that elevate your celebration or brand experience.
Let’s make something unforgettable — together.

Why the name SLM & Design Co.?
SLM & Design Co. is more than a brand — it’s a piece of my heart.
When it came time to choose a name, I knew I wanted something that honored the people who inspire me most: my family. Family has always been at the center of everything I value — love, tradition, creativity, and connection.
Choosing SLM & Design Co. was my way of weaving their spirit into everything I create. Every handwritten letter, engraved detail, and personalized piece is made with the same care, devotion, and artistry that my family has always shown me.
"S" stands for Shaquille (my fiancé), "L" for Layla (my daughter), and "M" for Milo (my son)
They are my whole heart.
The three letters also stand for what my business is about:
"S" Signs, "L" Lettering, and "M" Memorabilia
