About

    Whether it was cutting up Rolling Stone magazines to make DYI flyers for a college radio show, or currently spending time as an artist in my studio; I've always been interested in visual arts. Now living in Seattle, I spend my time volunteering at an organic community garden, visiting beautiful city parks, and enjoying the neighborhood scene of bookstores, restaurants and coffee shops.

    I'm currently enjoying A Tale for the Time Being by Ruth Ozeki.

    Often you will find me finishing a day of work
    in the studio.

    My Professional Life

    Creative in nature, my career spans 20 years of industry experience in print design, project management, and client engagement.

    I've worked with both executive and artistic leadership teams to bring about creative vision and project completion. I value consistency and a meticulous craft in my approach; performing work across a broad range of visual styles; both in graphic design and print production.

    With every project, I encourage workplace environments where teams understand, and are invested in, each other’s ideas and communicate well. Focused and thoughtful, my attitude is kind and outgoing with a realistic outlook. A client and project-focused attitude is always the priority. If you're interested in working with me, I encourage you to reach out via email or on LinkedIn.
