I’m a Graphic Designer and Creative Manager with 23 years of experience in New York and Oregon working in experiential graphic design, advertising, branding agencies, and on in-house creative teams. Currently I am a Senior Experiential Graphic Design Strategist at Bora Architects & Interiors.
I strive to connect people to the built environment through experiential design that creates conversation, infuses personality, and amplifies brand culture. Previously a designer and creative manager at Wieden+Kennedy Portland, my work ranged from concepting, designing, and producing work for global advertising campaigns across print, OOH, and digital media. Select clients include Microsoft, Portland Community College, Portland State University, Texas A&M, Absci, Lincoln High School, RXBar, Herbal Essences, Coca Cola, Levi’s, Trident, Starbucks, Electronic Arts (EA), Target, Honeywell, Women’s Entertainment (WE), National Lampoon, FreshDirect, Seaworthy, Portland Fashion Institute, and Wellspring Media.
When not in front of a computer, you’ll find me swimming, running, and chasing after my daughter.
