A Little About Me

Something that has always made me happy is creating things that people can hold, experience, and remember.

Over the past 12+ years, I've had the opportunity to design everything from brand identities and packaging to publications, event graphics, marketing campaigns, and environmental signage for organizations in higher education, hospitality, publishing, and consumer products.

One of my favorite parts of the job is collaborating with marketers, photographers, printers, and clients to take an idea all the way through production. I enjoy finding creative solutions, working through the details, and seeing a project come to life.

Things I Love Creating

  • Brand identities that feel authentic
  • Packaging that catches your eye
  • Editorial layouts that make information easier to understand
  • Mini mockups that prove a concept and are just too cute
  • Marketing campaigns with a clear messaging
  • Print pieces people want to keep
  • Product and lifestyle photography
  • The tiny details that make people say "well that was clever"

Outside the Office

When I'm not designing, you'll usually find me chasing my mini human, in the mountains photographing Colorado's beauty, trying a new recipe, or working on some sort of project.

Being a mom has given me a whole new appreciation for thoughtful products, children's brands, and the little design decisions that can make everyday moments easier and more enjoyable.

I'm endlessly inspired by creative design, beautiful spaces, and clever packaging. There's a good chance that if we're walking through a grocery store together, I'm paying just as much attention to the packaging as I am to what's inside.

Let's Connect

I'm always happy to connect with fellow creatives, teams, and organizations doing meaningful work. Whether it's a future opportunity, a collaboration, or just a conversation about design, photography, or the best buffalo wings in town, my inbox is always open.
