I grew up in sunny Santa Monica, California, where the west coast waves and energetic culture instilled in me a love for creativity and vitality. When I was young, my family moved to Colorado, where I discovered my passion for sports and teamwork. I played basketball, softball, wrestling, hockey, and martial arts, and I had the privilege of learning from NBA and WNBA players as well as top martial arts instructors. From them, I gained invaluable lessons about leadership, perseverance, and what it truly means to be a team player.
I dedicated myself wholeheartedly to sports, pursuing them with enthusiasm until a torn MCL sidelined me during high school. Despite this setback, the discipline and resilience that athletics instilled in me have remained a cornerstone of my life. My journey in martial arts, in particular, taught me self-control, focus, and how to mentor others. Earning my purple belt in Karate taught me the value of leading with kindness, while earning my black belt in Taekwondo taught me to lead with strength.
These formative experiences shaped my character, teaching me to overcome challenges, inspire others, and strive for excellence. Today, I bring the same energy, creativity, and determination to my work in marketing, project management, and graphic design. Collaboration and strategy are central to my professional journey, as I am deeply committed to achieving shared goals.
In marketing, I thrive on creating strategies that captivate audiences and drive results, drawing on the creativity I first nurtured on the California coast. I apply lessons of teamwork and leadership from both the court and the dojo to ensure that every project runs smoothly and succeeds. My background in graphic design combines the discipline of martial arts with my passion for creativity, enabling me to craft compelling visuals that communicate powerful stories.
I approach every challenge with resilience, focus, and an unwavering commitment to excellence—values that have guided me throughout my life and career.
Every project I embark on begins with the simplicity of paper, pencil, and ink. This tactile process allows me to explore ideas, map out concepts, and set the foundation for the creative journey ahead.
I believe that creativity thrives when you challenge the norm, and my ability to put a spin on traditional techniques allows me to solve problems in bold, innovative ways. While my work is often daring, my approach is grounded in careful thought and deep immersion.
I’m quiet and reserved, preferring to take the time to understand every facet of a project before diving in. This balance between boldness and introspection allows me to create work that is both impactful and thoughtfully crafted, ensuring that every piece I produce is not only visually striking but also deeply connected to its purpose.
