What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a creative role where I can lead integrated campaigns and product/brand experiences, collaborate cross-functionally, and drive measurable audience engagement while growing into broader creative leadership.

I am a multidisciplinary creative with 7+ years of experience bridging art direction and design for major brands and agencies. I combine conceptual thinking with executional craft to produce campaigns, events, brand systems, web, motion, social, and identity work.

At agencies I’ve led design across channels, serving as sole designer or UI Art Director to deliver websites, motion, OOH, and integrated campaigns for clients like General Motors, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Siemens, Bissell, and Toyota. My work has generated measurable engagement, including 400,000+ impressions on social and 250,000+ visits to a site within three months.

My strengths include brand identity, UI/UX design and prototyping (Figma, Adobe XD), motion and video production (After Effects, Premiere), and cross-functional collaboration with strategy, account, production, and external vendors to execute large-scale launches and event activations.

I bring a hands-on approach to creative leadership, delivering polished execution while supporting new business, client presentations, and rebrands. I strive to create work that connects with audiences across platforms and drives results.
