To advertise well is to deliver a welcoming invitation to try something new. It’s an inspiring call to action, to seek and discover what comes next. I love my role as an art director. My drive is to craft content that catches eyes & opens minds. I am enthusiastic about weaving storylines that resonate, whether it’s a one-off instagram story that stops thumbs or a 360 campaign fit with a 3 minute film.

I was born and raised in Northern Virginia, graduated from the BYU AdLab in Provo, Utah, and I currently reside in New York, NY. Beyond agency walls, I love to sing and perform. I find joy in being a devoted cat parent, and love exploring ceramics as a beginner. I deeply appreciate all things Scandinavian, such as the interior design, the overall philosophies, and, of course, the colorful gummy candy.

Among friends, I have lovingly been dubbed a "Tchotchke Goblin" due to my love for “useless” doodads that spark joy and meaning. If you are wondering how I like to spend my free time, know that I take pride in being an active member of the AMC Stubs Premiere program.

Reach out and we can talk more, I would love to get to know you.
