Hello.
​
I am a Seasoned Design Director with over 18 years’ experience including time with Crocs, Nike and over 13 years with the adidas brand split between both the Global and North American headquarters. My experience living and working abroad has given a global perspective to my work and has provided me with the knowledge necessary to design for an ever-changing consumer. As a designer I value working with my hands. I believe in keeping my artistic ability alive off of the screen as well as looking for inspiration in unexpected ways.
​
I graduated from PNCA in Portland Oregon with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Graphic Design and Communication Arts. My love for story telling has kept my passion for art alive, whether that be through lithography, photography, painting or illustration.
​
I find value in hiking, trail running, cycling, and chasing around two little kids. The outdoors are my lifeline and a very important part of my daily life.
Sustainability, inclusivity, and diversity are important values to me that I passionately carry with me wherever I go.
​
Thank you for your time.
