My Philosophy
Rooted in a lifelong love of all things creative, I blend storytelling instinct with strategic thinking in everything I do. I hold a degree in graphic design and marketing, but my real expertise lies in understanding how visuals, voice, and systems work together — and how powerful they become when they’re attuned to one another.
As an in-house Marketing Strategist for a luxury interiors company (read: a very enthusiastic department of one), I oversee everything from print and web design to social media and email marketing. If it touches the brand, it’s got my fingerprints all over it.
Working alongside some of the industry’s top interior designers has refined my eye and deepened my love for thoughtful, elevated design with just the right amount of personality.
Hey!
The Stats:

I graduated from Northwest Missouri State University with a degree in Interactive Digital Media: Visual Imaging.
I also received a minor in Advertising, and worked on campus as an RA and at the student newspaper (where I met my husband – a fellow Marketing nerd).
