You made it through the scroll! Since you’re still here, I’ll share a little more about myself.
I am a hands on creative director based in the bay area who blends strategy and craft to build scalable, impactful brands. I’ve had the chance to work on brands from a lot of different angles, in agencies, in-house, and PR, which means I’ve seen what moves the needle and what shapes how people experience a brand. I believe the best work is purposeful, grounded in brand truth, and built to scale and adapt.
With 20 years of design experience and over 10 years of leadership, I lead with positivity and calm confidence, creating safe and collaborative environments. I value honest communication within my team and strong cross functional partnerships.
In my spare time, I hang out with my husband, two kids and my cat. We go on hikes in the red woods and on urban adventures (sans cat, obviously), or when at home, attempt every fun art and craft project social serves me.
