so glad you're here!

a bit about me

I am a dog-lover, avid iced coffee drinker, true crime junkie, spreadsheet-maker, record collector, and a bit of a perfectionist. I like to say I inherited the "I-can-do-that" gene, which means I'll enthusiastically try to master pretty much any creative hobby out there. I've never met a game I didn't want to play, I love to cook, I sew in my free time and have an affinity for well designed bottle labels, organized pantries, and handmade ceramics. And that's me in a nutshell... or wait, is this me in a nutshell? 

​

I grew up and lived most of my life in Southern California, but relocated to Portland, Oregon with my husband and our rescue pup, Rooney. All three of us are certifiably introverted and absolutely thrive doing remote work - especially Rooney - who spends her days finding the perfect nap spot. During the pandemic, we took up road-tripping and have since covered 21 states. Got a recommendation for our next adventure?

what i do

I have 10+ years of experience on small(ish) creative teams, through which I have perfected my go-getter, learn-by-doing, hat-wearing attitude. My experience is vast, including print, out-of-home, in-store merchandising design, responsive email & digital design, video editing, social media marketing, and photography direction. I also really love designing custom icons and illustrating just about anything.

how i do it

Creating inspiring and functional solutions to design problems is my passion. Whether it's as small as a 24px icon, or as big as a 80ft billboard, I'll meet the challenge with excitement, a strategic mindset, laser-sharp attention to detail, and finesse.
