Hello!

I love to help brands develop creative print and digital solutions that aid them in effectively reaching their target audience. I work well independently, but thrive with a creative team and have 10+ years of experience as an art director managing groups consisting of designers, photographers, and production artists. I’m organized, efficient, and handle criticism in a professional manner. I have over a decade of agency experience and roughly five years of corporate in-house marketing department experience. My industry experience ranges from oil & gas to food & beverage — B2B and B2C. In my spare time, I like to stay up-to-date on the latest in printing, web, social, typography, and photography practices.
