Hello. For over 15 years, I’ve focused on creating clean, informative design developed from complicated content. I have experience navigating large-scale projects and communicating information clearly to users, to readers, and to teams. I whole-heartedly believe in transparency, teamwork, good communication, and making the world a better place everyday. I'm a mix of digital and a little bit of analog. I'm a lover of learning who studied in Paris and have a strong background in architecture, typography, and brand development. And, I love a good challenge—I won a Blue Ribbon for Best Pie at the Minnesota State Fair.
