Over the past decade, she has continued to lead and support the evolution and implementation of the identity across government communications, signage, insignia, advertising systems, and public-facing touchpoints.

The best advice I've ever received is...

“to trust your ideas, trust yourself, and be brave enough to just go for it. Usually, the things that scare you the most are the things worth pursuing. And if something doesn’t work out, try not to see it as rejection, it’s redirection towards something better.”

I'm an RGD Member because...

“I truly believe in what the organization stands for. I value the focus on ethics, mentorship, learning and community. I'm gratful to be surrounded by such talented creatives who continue to inspire, challenge, and shape both my work and perspective as a designer.”

You should hire me because...

“I truly care about the work and the people behind it. I become deeply invested in my clients’ vision and success. I love helping people see new possibilities and bringing all of their hard work to life through thoughtful strategy, design, branding, websites, and communications that feel authentic to them and aligned with their ideal audience”
