My plan: Take online courses and follow inspirational people.The execution: Scroll Dribble and other social media platforms for hours on end, and walk around random stores with a pencil and notebook, looking for innovative ways to bring ideas to life.

  • Ostrom Creative
    Sr. Art Director
    Ostrom Creative Mar 2022 - Present
    Excelsior, Minnesota, Us
    Working with a close-knit group of people in a small agency setting allows for a lot of spit-balling of crazy ideas without offending HR (who is the company dog) and sets the tone for allowance to fail creatively. Whether it be an app design, new branding, updating old branding, photo shoot direction, digital ads and anything marketing for that matter, we have a lot of different clients with different needs to feed my creative soul. It's great being on a team that hits the mark with a full breadth of work; making it never boring, with a twist of happy hours to keep it the right amount of fun.

  • Wine And Canvas Minneapolis
    Painting Teacher
    Wine And Canvas Minneapolis Apr 2013 - May 2016
    Teaching was one of the most rewarding jobs, though my students drank a lot of wine, it was fulfilling showing the average population that everyone can paint, they just need to let themselves get out of their heads. Channeling my inner Bob Ross was also challenging teaching 3-hour classes with some as large as 75+ students, and being able to handle the difficult students with humor and maturity. Coming up with a minimum of 10 paintings a month was definitely the hardest part of the job. Trying to merge creativity, simplicity of paintings, and something people would actually want to sign up for.
