A little more depth:

At my core, I am a Production Designer, but my incessant need for a challenge keeps me thirsty for opportunities outside my wheelhouse. Video production and editing, and animation are just a few areas that I would love to eventually gain further experience in. So far, typography and layout management have been a key emphasis in my day-to-day focus, for both print and digital media. I have been aiding creative teams on client-driven deliverables by ensuring projects are standardized and consistent across the desired platform, as well as managing assets, file naming conventions, and server structures for ease of long-term access.

In my spare time, when I’m not knee-deep in some type of home improvement project, I’m out camping with my partner, Michael, and our dog, Ranger, enjoying the beauty of the PNW, or, out exploring the vast corners of the world.

Add me to your team, and you’ll be getting someone that possess these top five strengths: Achiever, Relator, Futuristic, Individualization, and Responsibility. I thrive in environments that allow me to utilize these strengths, and seek opportunities that embrace and value these qualities.

Let’s get to work!
