About Me
If you met me today, you would know pretty quickly that I am a
creative extrovert with a huge passion for storytelling and branding.
Every business, product, and person has a story. Piecing together that story in a creative and influential way is so exciting.
​
If you asked my teammates to describe me, they would say that I am:
-
Extremely organized - I live and breathe by my Google Calendar
-
Competitive - take a look at my awards section if you want proof
-
Detail-oriented - me and my fine tooth comb = best friends
-
Design-focused - if it doesn't look sexy I'm not putting my name on it
