Dreamer | Designer | Doer - building stronger brands + relationships
I'm a dreamer, designer, and doer who loves to assist good people in accomplishing good things. I help your startup, non-profit, or small to mid biz turn passive audiences into engaged lifetime supporters through thoughtful approach, thorough research, human-centered design, and a hefty dash of creativity... I am a natural leader and an evergreen learner. With 10+ years of experience and my stacked toolbox of dynamic yet cohesive marketing skills, I aim to be a true asset to any team into which I integrate or project I take on. I’ve been remotely designing, writing, and strategizing from anywhere with wifi since 2018- whether a casita in Guatemala or a boathouse in Minnesota.

Projects

Elemental Perspective

While my work spans a variety of sectors, Elemental Perspective is the omnipresent approach I take with every project I encounter. It's a process informed by paying attention to small details that ultimately make a big difference, asking yourself new and hard questions in pursuit of growth, and understanding that relationship-building can be anything from a thoughtful note to a strategic client acquisition plan. Let's be honest- it's also just straight-up making you look good!See More
