A little about me

 
 

When it comes to design and brand experience I start with a brand’s soul, build stories, and translate it across print and digital mediums through thoughtful designs.

When it comes to teams, I bring order to chaos by focusing on creating and improving processes, building and scaling design systems, and enabling change within design teams.

All this combined allows me to support bringing brands to life and products to customers and users.

Managing a brand’s presence in a consistent, engaging and meaningful way is a growing challenge. With a versatile background spanning design across ad work, web applications, design systems, mobile app design, email and social media campaign work, environment signage, and direct mail, I focus on crafting and maintaining the full brand experience. When it comes to managing the tools and files to execute on projects I support design teams’ growth by creating and scaling design systems, designing workflow processes, and reducing friction to execute design work.

Some things I enjoy when I’m not designing are: Snowboarding, Marathon training along Chicago’s Lakeshore path, Swing dancing, and consuming the latest Star Wars series.

I’m also an ADP-List Mentor. I use storytelling to guide people up the "Mount Everest" of unpacking career anxiety, I advocate for the normalization of mental health discussions in the professional world, and I help aspiring or career transitioning designers navigate breaking into the industry.
