I'm a seasoned, hands-on UX Creative Director who has had the opportunity to work on various projects, products, and digital solutions. My passion is delivering beautiful, holistic, user-centered digital solutions, marketing materials, and brand experiences surrounding a cohesive corporate vision. I’ve led teams of art directors, managers, and designers in the corporate multi-business unit layers of the business world and spent years in the chaotic, crazy deadline type of atmosphere of an agency environment. I have been the go-to person for special or impossible projects for over ten years. I collaborate with stakeholders, business units, product managers, and the folks in the trenches. I enjoy motivating, growing, and empowering my team through new territories and innovative projects. Sometimes, there are many battlefields to wade through, but – in the end – our learnings and accomplishments evolved into success stories. I’ve spent over 20 years immersed in the creation of websites and eCommerce stores, email marketing, mobile apps, social media, in-store digital experiences and solutions, corporate identity, affiliate endeavors, PPT pitch decks, newsletters, brochures, blogs, reward and feedback programs, video production, and heavy UI design work that includes several enterprise omnichannel software solutions, both B2B and B2C.For fun, any chance I get, I jump on my Harley and ride across the country with my husband and my friends. This country is absolutely beautiful, and everyone should explore it.I also help Front of House at the Paramount Arts Theater and Copley Theater in Aurora, where first-class theater productions come alive. At RiverEdge Park, too, where top artists' music in the summer months is fantastic and a riot! The Park is transformed into a winter holiday wonderland for the Christkindl Market, which is magical.
