My Story
Growing up as a long-distance swimmer, I learned to think deeply and solve problems with every stroke. During those quiet, focused moments, I often pondered my purpose and how I could make a meaningful impact. My parents' simple yet profound advice? “Just keep swimming.”
In college, my curiosity led me to explore psychology, writing, journalism, fine art, communication, and advertising, ultimately guiding me to graphic design—a powerful medium through which I could shape, problem solve, and bring stories to life.
Over the years, I’ve applied my expertise in diverse settings: from non-profit theaters and small design firms to global sports brands, mid-sized companies, and independent consulting. In every role, I have focused on solving creative challenges and delivering strategic, finely crafted messaging for organizations that inspire me.
Recently, I’ve embraced AI’s transformative power in design, blending my deep experience with emerging technologies to create innovative, socially impactful solutions. This new chapter has reignited my passion for creative exploration and opened doors to meaningful collaborations that make a difference.
Today, I’m dedicated to helping businesses and non-profits amplify their voices, clarify their brand identity, and grow. From brand development and logo creation to crafting immersive retail experiences, I collaborate with clients to uncover and communicate their unique "gifts" to the world.
With the same tenacity I had as a swimmer, I dive deep into research, brand development, strategic communication, and a mix of traditional and AI-driven solutions to help businesses connect authentically with their audiences and contribute to positive social change.
