Hello.
I’m a detail-oriented art director and people leader with years of experience elevating design solutions, and evolving brands from startup to enterprise.
Accelerating value doesn’t have to mean sacrificing good design.
Maybe it’s my accidental marketing background, but even when I’m deep in operational details I still see the overarching strategy. The bigger picture informs everything I do, and the overall brand trajectory.
Change happens constantly in organizations. Rallying my team around a central purpose to deliver good work—intelligently, and at scale to meet shifting priorities—stays the same.

I have a photo problem. I have a photo hobby.
In a past work life, I was also a writer.
For over four years, I wrote blog posts for an integrated services agency about social media, marketing, SEO, best practices, and more. While the content itself is wildly outdated (turns out the media landscape completely reshapes itself every couple years), my love for marrying strong opinions and humorous asides aren’t. Here are a few of my favorite posts from that era.
