About Me

With 10 years of experience in design and marketing, I’ve built a strong foundation in branding, design strategy, client relationships, and independent project management. I thrive in fast-paced environments, where tight deadlines and budgets are the norm, always delivering high-quality results.

 

I’m deeply passionate about the creative process, from strategy and research to design and execution. I love tackling fresh challenges and diving into new industries, always eager to learn about different audiences and their needs.

 

Outside of work, you’ll likely find me running trails or out on the golf course. I recently completed my first 50-mile ultra marathon and am gearing up for even longer races. Also, with four years of college golf experience at the NCAA DII level, I’m always ready to contribute to any company golf outing.
