Service is as important
as services.
Creativity, strategic thinking and impeccable client service: That’s what you’ll get when you work with me. I put my extensive experience and expertise to work to further your goals.
A bit about me.
After earning an MFA from the University of Oregon with the goal of teaching at the university level, I moved to the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State, where I pivoted to creative services. I found to my surprise that these were much more interesting. I love learning about other people’s work and goals.
After establishing a design business in Port Angeles, I later added branding and communications, allowing me to offer integrated creative services at a level and cost that works for growing businesses. This is where I found my true calling: working one on one with owners and direct decision makers. I can dive deeply into problem solving, and at the same time provide a broad overview of the way forward.
Depth and breadth.
Going wide and diving deep are not mutually exclusive – we need both to get to the essence of a business’s core needs and value. My own experience as a small business has taught me to be as thorough as possible when taking on a branding or marketing project, whether it’s for a new business or a refresh for an existing one.
I take pride in how I’ve helped my clients over the years. I work with my clients as a team, and this has proven to be the best way to arrive at solutions that most specifically meet clients' goals. Some of my work has won national awards. My approach is always based on creativity, strategic thinking and impeccable client service. That’s what clients can expect when they work with me.
