Creative Director | Marketing Strategist | Curator
I’m a multi-passionate creative with over 7 years of experience in corporate and content marketing, specializing in the HR, people, and culture space. I partner with mission-driven brands to bring their values and vision to life through creative direction, copywriting, and fostering organizational cultures that connect people to purpose. In addition, I’ve curated over a dozen pop-up art experiences in Austin and co-founded the Slow Fashion Festival to build community around the slow fashion movement. I’m also deeply dedicated to my own creative practice through writing, music, and photography, with work exhibited around the world, including Austin, Tokyo, and Glasgow.

Projects

Slow Fashion Festival

Here’s the revised version under 2000 characters: Slow Fashion Festival (SFF) is a community-driven initiative promoting sustainability, ethical practices, and thoughtful consumption in the fashion industry. Launched in Austin, Texas, in October 2022, SFF has grown into a platform for education, connection, and celebration of slow fashion. Through events like runway shows, panel discussions, workshops, and maker markets, SFF inspires conversations and collaborations that challenge fast fashion and advocate for a more conscious and sustainable future. The festival’s programming highlights the artistry of ethical designers, the innovation of independent makers, and the power of collective action. Key events include runway shows featuring sustainable collections, maker markets showcasing local artisans, and panel discussions with industry leaders sharing insights into slow fashion. Since its debut, SFF has hosted multiple events, including annual three-day festivals, seasonal fashion shows, and collaborations like a curated show at the Hollywood Climate Summit. In 2024, SFF was selected for official SXSW programming, expanding its reach and influence. A cornerstone of SFF is its Slow Fashion Zine, an annual publication launched at the Spring Fashion Show. Featuring event recaps, thoughtful articles, and curated resources, the zine extends the festival’s mission and serves as a keepsake for the community. With a combined social media reach exceeding 250,000, SFF amplifies the voices of designers, makers, and advocates within the slow fashion movement. Recognized by media outlets such as Tribeza and Austin Woman Magazine, SFF continues to be celebrated as a transformative force in sustainable fashion.See More
