After I earned a BFA in Graphic Design at Arizona State University many years ago, I began my career as a print designer in a small studio located in Phoenix, Arizona. But a magical Seattle summer vacation put a spell on me and lured me away from that eternally hot, dry desert to a land of towering pines and moist cool air.
Since my arrival here in the Pacific Northwest, my career has advanced from print designing to marketing and creative management roles. In 2018, I took a sabbatical from my work and studied website and user interface design at the School of Visual Concepts here in Seattle. I also took a 400/hr UX/UI course through CareerFoundry. My recent training in UX/UI/website design has provided me the skills necessary to tackle a broader spectrum of design challenges.
When I'm not crafting design and marketing projects, I enjoy bicycling, walking through tree-lined PNW neighborhoods, and lounging anywhere that offers enticing views of the expansive Puget Sound waters.
