I’m a product designer and brand creator with 20+ years of "player-coach" experience shaping digital products, brand systems, and marketing campaigns.
I have led teams and projects at the crossroads of design, storytelling, and technology. I have also built creative departments from the ground up, developed workflows, and managed budgets.
A collaborator at heart, I enjoy working with teams and key stakeholders to bring the vision to life. As a mentor to young creatives, my approach is supportive, inspiring, and motivating.
