Brand Development

Human interaction–an emotional sensory experience–is the way to make an impact and create lasting relationships. 


I will tell your story through creative direction, design strategy, visual language, digital assets, collaborations, staff training, and experiential design. Audience love and loyalty is the aim.

Apparel Design

As a designer with over 10 years experience in the industry, I pull from my love of  history, color, travel, and textiles to create garments and identity that communicate your brand voice.

Research & Education

I specialize in both historical and present-day marketplace research for branding projects, legal matters, and educational curriculum. As Co-Founder of Designer Camp, I am able to apply my years within the design industry to curate life changing experiences for young creatives.

Encounter Beauty

Through Encounter Beauty I combine my pursuit for beauty in the everyday with my love for research and education, to contribute reviews of products, places, and practices to live well.

About

I desire to continually learn from other cultures and contribute to the growth and development of individuals in every part of the world. I will “aim at heaven” and believe that “earth will be thrown in.”

I believe that relationships are the substance of life, that any tension creates strength, and that we were created to create.
