MY JOURNEY

I graduated with a BFA in Graphic Design from Kendall College of Art and Design and have worked in the industry for nearly a decade.

Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to develop and refine my skills as a designer and art director. I joined Steelcase, a leading B2B furniture company, as a graphic designer, focusing on photo and rendering direction and design touch points. After Steelcase, I joined The Distillery Project, an advertising agency, where I served as an art director for both large and small brand campaigns, working with brands like Meijer, Dehnco, Fresh Thyme, and Steelcase.

Most recently, I pivoted to be in a managerial role as the Senior Manager of Brand Creative at Seismic. I currently lead our global Brand Creative team. My team is responsible for all of marketing’s global design touch points, including, but not limited to, print & web collateral, experiential design, paid media advertising, social media execution, and thought leadership campaigns. I enjoy working with my team as a cohesive unit and advocate for work/life balance, as I believe burnout is the thief of joy.

Throughout my career, I have explored various niches within design, allowing me to pinpoint what I love most: working with brands to create strong, strategic, and memorable assets that resonate with their target audiences. 

When I’m not working, you can find me enjoying the lake with my husband, daughter, two dogs and, sometimes, cat. Some of my interests include: making my house feel like home, constantly updating people with pictures of my pets, not staying up late, but also not getting up early, the Enneagram, studying light and how it affects an image, drinking coffee, getting a lot of check marks, and Zac & Eliza Sturgeon.
