Welcome! Thanks for visiting my site.
How did I get here:
In my career I have been able to work for wonderful companies like Ste. Michelle Wine Estates, Cranium and freelanced for creative Seattle companies such as Forest-Pruzan Creative, Wonderforge and Realogics. Currently I am an in-house Graphic Design Manager for PMI Worldwide for Starbucks merchandise and product. I lead a design team specializing in product, packaging and photography. I consider myself creative, practical and level-headed. I love my team and finding ways to help them shine is one of my passions!
How I work:
I enjoy the creative process, brainstorming and development. I have a very solid technical background when it comes to print, packaging and display. I have years of press check expertise. I have created everything from coupons to massive displays, illustration to photography and I have a real soft spot for packaging. I direct a talented group of digital and print designers and have experience with D2C and meeting e-commerce needs. I have had amazing opportunities to design interiors and consumer experiences and even dabble in video and website art direction every once in a while. I can also build stuff, by hand, with real tools.
What do I like :
My husband and I started a cocktail podcast called Amateur Bartending for Immature People. That is my hobby and it has been a blast working on recipes, content and recording. I also maintain an instagram account that features all the drink images.
Recently I have bought a kayak and love exploring the waterways around Seattle.
My teardrop trailer that we built from scratch, Mid Century Modern, Decisive Clients, Honesty, Critters (my cats esp.), smell of ozone, and fresh printing
