Hey there!

I am an energetic, thoughtful, and experienced creative leader and designer—with a constant need to explore new methods of intersecting design thinking and technology. It's my desire to create beautiful experiences that not only focus on function to drive user-engagement, but also deliver highly engaging design to the user to facilitate deep emersion into the products that we—as a team, create. There is nothing more rewarding to me than collaborating with my team and turning a thought or idea into reality.

I have enjoyed a career in the creative industry for 30 years. As a creative leader I have a deep understanding of design direction, product innovation and consumer insight. I am a confident and empathetic people leader with the ability to direct teams with composure and vision; creating deep bonds with my professional counterparts and collaborative partners. Possessing strong aesthetic skills and advanced insights of culture, design and function I also have a keen insight of identifying trends in the design industry. I am recognized for consistently bringing projects to successful completion while retaining the vision of the concept.

I have spent almost my entire adult life in Seattle. It’s not wasted on me how lucky I am to live in a city with a great diversity of culture, food, music and art—all of which has strongly influenced my career. I am always a work in progress and have always been open to learning and trying new things. My career has taken me in many directions of the last several decades—and I know what it takes to engage an audience, build business and achieve ambitious goals.

I’m always up for great conversation, meeting new people, and caffeine—so hit me up!
