I consider myself a problem solver...it’s one of the things I love most about design. I’m always up
for the challenge of taking all of the various elements I’m given and putting them together to create something that not only will excite the audience visually, but will motivate them to act as well. Seeing a project come together and be successful is my ultimate goal. Having a proactive approach and being self-motivated are a couple of my strongest qualities. I believe in being versatile, willing to
take on new challenges and I’m always looking to expand my knowledge.

I’ve worked for highly regarded advertising agencies and also for in-house
marketing departments. This has given me the unique experience of being able to work on
nationally recognized campaigns as well as local promotions on a wide variety of projects.
Working in both of these environments has shaped me into being a team leader, player and
someone who can also successfully work independently.

Here’s a few little known facts about me:

1. I can fit any amount of groceries into the fridge. A carload of stuff from Costco? No problem!

2. I have the ability (superpower?) before I fall asleep to set my “mental alarm clock”
and I'll wake up +-5 minutes from the time I "set".

3. My design skills even come into play when I’m working out in the yard. I won a
landscaping award for one of the best landscapes in my city. If I have a green thumb
for landscaping, what color thumb would I have for for design?

4. I guess it’s considered OCD, but I always like lining things up so they are straight,
evenly spaced or parallel/perpendicular to each other. I don’t know how many times a day
I move my keyboard 1/8” or 1/4” so it is parallel with the edge of my desk. (weird huh?)
