I’m a graphic designer and data scientist based in Missoula, Montana.

Likes: My furry kids, laughter, my Kindle, coffee, and cupcakes.

Dislikes: Procrastination, mushrooms, IPA’s, and doing dishes,

I Spend my Free Time:
Baking with sourdough, cutting up fabric and sewing it back together to make quilts, and trying to figure out what trout like to eat.

We Would Get Along If:
You think that your already pretty-great life is better when shared with awesome people and you don’t mind dog hair that sticks to everything but the dog.

I design, develop, manage, create, market, brand and strategize.

Print and digital knowledge. Experience working with a wide variety of clients – large corporations, small businesses and non-profits.

Creative design for print, digital, outdoor, online, mobile, logos, social media management and development. Print and media buying/brokering, print/media marketing consulting.

Graphic designer with excellent organization and communication skills, an eye for detail, a stellar work ethic and a passion for design. I communicate well in a professional manner with others and also work well independently from start to finish.
