I began my career at Brainstorm eager for a new challenge as a still fresh designer and art director. The opportunities to learn, grow and evolve as a designer and creative professional were far more than I could have ever imagined. Brainstorm was packed with talent and focus that launched me into new heights. I was lucky enough to be part of a team that managed projects from the ground up and became completely immersed and in love with the creative process of a project. From logo design to product rollouts, web ads to e-marketing campaigns, I became an integral part of the Brainstorm team. Overseeing creative and providing direction on projects big in small from kick-off meetings to production. My knowledge for branding, design and client relations grew tremendously over the years, and I ended my tenure with Brainstorm as Associate Creative Director.

I started my career at Hickman as an intern in the summer following my junior year at Herron. I was fortunate enough to work part-time throughout my senior year. Following graduation I accepted a full-time design position and ended my tenure at Hickman + Associates as an Art Director. It was a wonderful experience that introduced to me the many facets, processes and details behind great creative work and true professionals.

Bernard Hodes was my first "real" job. I was lucky enough to make a professional connection through a parent of a child in my preschool class while working at Kindercare (children are my other love). I began working as an intern, supporting the designer and creative director in resizing and layouts of various recruiting advertisements. I was surrounded by wonderful professionals whom truly embraced me and helped me become my own designer in a world that was very unfamiliar at the time. After the completion of my internship I continued to work for Bernard Hodes as a freelance designer throughout my junior year of school -- and was forced to say goodbye to my little buddies at Kindercare.
