I have deemed the chameleon to be my design spirit animal due to my extensive agency experience. I'm able to understand a brand's strategy, voice and goals and align my design to support that vision. My solutions are holistic and live strongly throughout the entire lifespan of a campaign. I work best in a zone of collaboration with strategist, copywriters and account directors who bring their expertise to the table. I believe the best results are created through intersectional design.
Design event brands from concept to completion. Facilitate ideation meetings with clients and internal team members, present solutions to C-Level teams, synthesize feedback in order to execute comprehensive campaign that exceed expectations and goals. Communicate with printers and production team to ensure final products are delivered on time, on budget, and look beautiful.
