What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can lead brand systems and integrated campaigns, partner closely with Product/Marketing/Sales, and push thoughtful, high-performing design—using AI-assisted workflows to improve ideation and production.

I’m a Senior Brand Designer crafting thoughtful identities, scalable design systems, and digital experiences for ambitious ideas. For the last 5 years, I’ve focused on building and evolving brands B2B SaaS brands. I translate complex business goals into compelling creative across web, digital, social, events, video, and product marketing.

Most recently, I led the visual integration of the Venminder brand after acquisition—creating a unified brand system spanning web, digital, product marketing, email, events, and executive communications. I art directed integrated campaigns, websites, motion graphics, and multimedia content from concept through launch, while building scalable Figma libraries, templates, and brand guidelines with Product, Marketing, Sales, developers, and Leadership.

I’m also passionate about motion graphics, brand systems, and AI-assisted workflows. I earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design from Eastern Kentucky University.
