ABOUT ME
I am a multidisciplinary creative with a vast span of professional experience. Most recently, I spent 3 years as the Creative Director of the startup Friends of Normie, where I singlehandedly tackled the creative and design needs of the company. Prior to Friends of Normie, I worked at Biola University’s Innovation Department, where I leveraged design thinking and creative strategy to support global entrepreneurs in developing and launching their startups. I am passionate about creating and maintaining a consistent brand through design that aligns with the stories of the companies I work with.
