What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a lead brand design role where I can shape how a brand looks and feels everywhere it shows up, from campaigns and presentations to events. I love owning work start to finish, learning from strong creative leaders, and growing toward creative direction. Bonus if your team uses AI to make better work, not just faster work.

Brand and experiential designer with 10+ years of in-house and freelance experience, including Apple and fast-growing technology companies. Leads brand systems, event environments, executive presentations, and generative AI content while setting day-to-day creative direction for an in-house team.

Collaborative and adaptable, skilled at working with international markets and remote teams across different time zones. Proficient in designing for various marketing needs, including brand awareness, AI-native workflows, social media strategies, email campaigns/automations, digital, print, packaging, localization and more.
