I inspire people to engage with brands in meaningful ways and work for a knock-your-socks-off senior living community called Samaritan Village where I lovingly manage all things marketing and sales.
Exploring new ways to inject humor and creativity into the Samaritan Village brand over the past six years has been an absolute labor of love. Watching our efforts to redefine what people think when they think, ‘Senior Living’, translate into year-over-year record growth makes me incredibly proud of the team we’ve assembled and the positive impact we’ve made on the many seniors and families who connect with our brand.
Outside of Samaritan Village, I provide marketing support to Castle Air Museum as well as consultative services to small businesses on select projects. I recently delved into food photography and my food photography portfolio may be viewed here.
In my spare time I play the violin and mandolin and nurse my obsession with behavioral science and history with a diet of (audio)books and podcasts. I have a widely-known love affair with typography, spending way more than I should on fonts, and I get away to the California coast and beautiful Washington to hike as often as I am able.
In 2017, I was the proud recipient of six Hermes Creative Awards: one Platinum, four Gold, and one Honorable Mention – for website design, logo design, copywriting, and digital illustration.
