I've been working for small businesses and non-profits for the past 10 years combining my background in science, marketing, and digital media. After receiving my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in neuroscience and psychology, I worked in vision research at UC Santa Cruz, UC San Diego, and the Smith-Kettlewell Eye Research Institute. Next I transitioned to marketing roles for community-focused organizations including Portland Children's Museum and most recently served as the Communications and Marketing Manager for Portland Farmers Market.Despite taking a few years off to care for my young kids during the pandemic, I've kept busy with both paid and unpaid opportunities that have honed my skills. Some of which are co-founding the Sidewalk Joy Map, starting a pottery business, podcast editing for the Kenza Collective, building websites for small businesses, and more.
