Hello!
I’m a creative director and designer with
over 15 years of experience in advertising.
I tell brand stories in all mediums.
I look at details obsessively.
I want to work with talented people, but also ones
who are collaborative, courageous, hardworking and kind.
In my spare time, I’m attempting to garden.
I find plants much harder to art direct than ads.
I live with my two kids, husband, and a growing number of lizards.
