About me
Although I’m a designer by title, my experience is largely cross-functional as I’m usually singled out as an asset for the social, marketing, product, content, and video production teams. I’m an asset in any step of the creative process from ideation to execution. Whether it’s self-led or from a creative brief, my creative problem solving skills help engage and inform audiences while ensuring brand elements remain consistent across multiple channels.
