Say “hey.”

more about me

I think strategically, but am meticulous in the smallest details of execution. I am able to frame complex problems, develop processes, and define visions for successful outcomes, following through with the hands-on work to get it done. I have a deeply ingrained inclination to work collaboratively, and have demonstrated leadership ability in managing, mentoring, and recruiting designers.

I have experience both deep and broad, from in-house at successful global corporations, to agency-side at some of the world’s most renowned global firms, and spanning print and digital, 2D and 3D design.

I've had the priviledge to work for clients like Trek Bicycle, Specialized, People for Bikes, SC Johnson, Tapestry (Coach, Kate Spade, Stuart Weitzman), University of Wisconsin system, Ionic, Owens Corning, Pepsi, Breville, Colgate, and Oral B.

I currently live and work in beautiful Madison, WI.
