I'm a digital project manager and web designer based in Michigan, with 4+ years leading full-cycle client projects at a marketing agency and a specialty I've built deliberately — behavioral health, mental health, and rehabilitation facilities. I have 10+ years of experience in graphic design and full branding. I design for organizations where the stakes are real, where clarity isn't just good UX, it's a person finding the help they were looking for. That keeps the work meaningful.

My background spans the full picture: UX and UI design, brand identity, and project management from first client call to final launch — working remotely, communicating clearly, and genuinely caring about the outcome.

Design is less a job and more a way of thinking for me. I'm an artist across mediums — paint, mixed media, sewing, always trying something new. My love for design extends into physical spaces too. I've designed homes from the studs up, making decisions about layout, light, furnishings, finishes and materials the same way I approach a website: with the person who lives in it front of mind. I also dabble in painting custom murals — which is about as close to design with no undo button as you can get. Outside, I'm most alive. I've hiked an active volcano, navigated a multi-day underground cave expedition, explored Vietnam on a motorcycle and have traveled to corners of the world that most people only see in documentaries. I have a deep love for animals, wildlife, and conservation — and a firm belief that bugs deserve more respect than they get.

At home my most important collaborator is Jax, my 10-year-old lab mix, who has strong opinions about my work schedule and is consistently right.
