Communications Strategist +
Creative Designer
I’m a Graphic Designer and Communications professional with a background in Graphic Design, Communications and Project Management.
With 14+ years of experience driving results in dynamic business markets, including direct-to-consumer retail, public health, and healthcare, I bring a unique blend of creative strategy, operational efficiency, and people-centered leadership. My expertise lies in managing complex projects, fostering collaboration, and delivering solutions that align with organizational goals and end-user needs.
In DTC retail, I honed my skills in design, coordination, and project management to elevate brands and drive consumer engagement. In public health and healthcare, I focused on advancing health equity and improving systems, leveraging my ability to lead cross-functional teams and navigate intricate operational landscapes. A key strength is my ability to influence teams and achieve goals without formal authority, cultivating trust, alignment, and shared ownership of success.
I am passionate about blending creativity and strategy to address meaningful challenges. I’d love to connect on projects with mission-driven organizations or innovative companies and contribute to work that drives both business and community impact.
Analytical meets aesthetics.
Analytical, comprehensive and solutions-oriented professional with an eye on the ultimate goal, while maintaining the ability to cultivate positivity and confidence in interactions with stakeholders.
Meticulous eye for detail
I enjoy catching areas of inconsistency and refining with the aim of streamlining communications materials.
Independent thinker
I am a decisive worker, and can identify potential bottlenecks and make appropriate judgement calls.
Growth mindset
How does this impact us today, next week, and support us in a year from now? Always looking towards the future in solving today’s problems.
Complex problem solver
I will research appropriate solutions to a problem before coming to you with an open-ended question. I enjoy working through the abstract, and I’m able to keep focus at times when the team is operating in a grey area.
Project Management
I will be able to ensure creative execution is met with secure planning, follow through, and seamless delivery. I operate as a leader to other team members whose strength in conceptual design needs a broader eye for integrating systems, timelines and overall scope.
Agile
I enjoy working in high-volume, fast pace environments, and keep busy supporting team members, learning new things and doing research during lulls.
Say hello.
Get in touch to see how we can work together.
