My first job out of college was a temp Production Artist gig for a company called Tracker Marine Group (they built and sold boats, mostly for fishing). They were based in Springfield, Missouri, with offices inside the corporate headquarters of Bass Pro Shops. I grew up in rural Western Kansas where it was flat, windy, dry and smelly. So, I'd never even heard of Bass Pro Shops, much less Tracker Marine Group. And I definitely wasn't an avid angler or boater. But I moved to Missouri for that $9/hr temp job, and the journey began.Fast forward almost 20 years, and I've worked exclusively in the outdoor industry. I've held titles like Creative Director, Graphics Manager, Senior Art Director and Retail Advertising Supervisor—all within exceptionally innovative Marketing Departments. I've learned so much, and I've had some amazing experiences along the way.Beyond the ability to jump into the Adobe Creative Suite and design for digital, print and more, the skills I've acquired and honed over the years are universal:• Team Leadership & Professional Development• Marketing & Brand Strategy• Agency/Client Relations• Project Management; Workflow/Process Improvement• Social Media/Content StrategyIf you're in the outdoor industry and would like to discuss how I might fit within your organization, let's talk. If you're in the healthcare industry and want to learn more about my 12 years of being a hands-on family caregiver, let's talk.

Conversations are free and harmless. Let's have one.
