I am a creative and operational manager with experience leading teams across content creation, design, digital marketing, social media, UX and video. I thrive at the intersection of innovation and execution. As a Creative Director, I’ve built and mentored high-performing teams, shaped compelling brand narratives, and driven strategic creative solutions for global technology and consumer brands.
From immersive digital experiences to large-scale campaigns, I bring a visionary approach to storytelling—aligning creative strategy with business objectives to create work that resonates, engages, and delivers results. With a foundation in design, an eye for innovation, and a passion for collaboration, I help brands bring their boldest ideas to life.
My work has helped to drive success for diverse clients such as Apple, ASUS, Columbia Sportswear, FEI, HP, Intel, Jeld-Wen, Jenny Craig, Johnstone Supply, Kinder Care, La Cantina, Microsoft, Nike, Samsung, Seekr, Sutter homes Wines, Tektronix and WebMD. I am happiest when leading creative teams as they solve complex problems and craft solutions for brands who wish to positively influence their customers and leave a lasting impression. Experience design, strategic vision, brand communications, operational oversight and creative instinct are all important aspects of my day-to-day responsibilities. And one more thing ... having fun doing it.
Outside my professional career, I enjoy mentoring/coaching students in the Portland State University - Marketing/Advertising Program and new career professionals (through the Npower Match program), gardening, doing improv comedy, volunteering within the Portland Public School Restoration and Modernization committee, going to see live music and entertaining friends and colleagues as an amateur chef and mixologist.
