A little bit about me —
I am a multifaceted creative based in the Greater Seattle area with 11 years of creative direction and design experience. I am currently an Associate Creator Director on Amazon’s Creator Marketing team.
In my role, I drive the visual strategy across all creator-facing marketing channels, leading a small but mighty internal creative team. Through close collaboration with marketing and product stakeholders, I develop and execute scalable initiatives that inspire the influencer community while providing strategic design direction that elevates our brand.
I am an ambitious and creative problem-solver. I thrive in collaborative environments where I can think big picture and hone in on the details.

Because you’re dying to know —
You can find me trying to keep up with my outdoorsy husband and our wirehaired pointing griffon, Grover.
I’m happiest when in the sunshine (specifically in Palm Springs) and traveling the globe.
My (not so guilty) pleasures: color coordinating my closet, digging into the latest interior design trends and binging true crime podcasts.
My go-to power color is yellow.
Self-proclaimed happy hour aficionado and Bravo enthusiast.
