How does that saying go? Mom’s are always right?

Who knew a comment my mom made to me one day when she caught me stressing over making my presentation as pretty as possible in junior high would stick with me until it came time to apply to colleges? To be fair, I have a feeling she knew I’d be headed into a creative industry long before then too as I was always drawing, coloring, anything creative. That computer on the right? That monster ran hours upon hours of Kid Pix and still houses dozens of PowerPoints I meticulously designed as a small child.

I like to think my mom was right and that I do make a great graphic designer - but I understand, you don’t know my wonderful momma bear, so I hope taking a look at my portfolio and resume also help convince you of that statement!

Four years of schooling at the University of Minnesota - Duluth where I graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design and Marketing, an internship with Visit Duluth, an internship with Duluth Children’s Museum, and going on 7 years at Camp Bow Wow Corporate where I’ve worked my way up from Graphic Designer to Senior Graphic Designer are responsible for making me the designer I am today.

I have a love for building and maintaining strong branding, smart design and marketing backed by analytics and research, and educating anyone who will listen about the importance of branding and good design. I’d love the chance to get to know you, your team, and your company and see if we’d make a great fit together!
