I care deeply about craft and the why behind it. My work always starts with understanding a brand's DNA, the cultural moment, data, and the humans on the other side of the conversation. I'm drawn to complexity (both in briefs and in life) and love the challenge of making something meaningful out of something overlooked.

I'm a Creative Director who loves leading people as much as I love making the work. With 17+ years in the field, and building and managing high-performing creative teams, I've learned that nurturing talent, building trust, and mentorship are where strategy and impact meet. The best ideas come when people feel safe to take risks. As I seek my next executive creative leadership role, I'm looking for an organization that values both breakthrough creative thinking and the kind of inclusive, empowering culture that brings out the best in every team member.

I'm a Maine native, a new mom, and a lifelong learner who finds inspiration as much in a good book or a long walk as in a brainstorm. I hand-paint my own thank you cards, am an avid supporter of a local farmer’s market and community politics, and find creative energy in everything from yoga to soup-making. Outside of work, I've published essays and short stories, created a web series on Vimeo, and am currently deep into writing my first novel (sigh, it's hard). I love great television, messy characters, and stories that make me and the world feel something, whether that's emotion, a sense of activism, or just a general sense of wonder.
