I am an experienced brand architect and creative marketer with a deep understanding of digital design and a strong command over typography, color, layout, branding, and design systems. I am passionate about technology, peer-to-peer online conversations and supporting brand evolution. There’s more to me than my work though, I am also an animal lover, avid reader, quilter, wellness enthusiast, upcycler and storyteller with an international upbringing. I laugh easily, ask questions often, and thrive when challenged. I have 17+ years of experience as a creative director in veterinary healthcare, eight years of experience in international development, and nine+ years of experience leading, mentoring and supporting a combined team of direct reports, internal and external subject matter expert partners, and outsourced service providers. What I do:- Strategy development and implementation - I inject lighthearted fun into the brands I create- I build teams gently and with an eye on long term job satisfaction. - I am analytical and a curious lifelong learner. - I thrive in service industries and value work that addresses important societal needs.- I thrive on teams with other detail-oriented, get-the-job-done types.- I love to create things. All things - art, crafts, quilts, garden walls, travel plans, and book lists.
