Creative Operations Leader
Creative at heart, strategic in approach, and efficient by nature
I'm a multidisciplinary creative leader with a foundation in graphic and textile design and more than 15 years of experience bringing products, brands, and digital experiences to life. Throughout my career, I've partnered with teams across apparel, retail, consumer products, technology, e-commerce, marketing, and branding, leading creative operations, design and production, and cross-functional programs from concept through delivery.
I thrive at creating clarity from complexity by building the systems, workflows, and collaborative ways of working that help creative teams do their best work. My cross-industry experience allows me to bring fresh perspectives, connect ideas across disciplines, and build scalable solutions that balance creativity with operational excellence.
Along the way, I've supported $235M in product launches, driven $6.75M in revenue growth, and helped organizations scale 400% through stronger operations, smarter workflows, and AI-enabled ways of working.

My Human Side
I’m a daydreamer, humanitarian, and creator. I grew up in wide open spaces on a ranch with horses and ostriches, an upbringing that tends to be a pretty reliable conversation starter at parties. Those quiet days meant a lot of building imaginary worlds and clowning around to make people laugh, which probably explains my lifelong dream of becoming a saxophone-playing comedian—two skills I’m still happily working on. It also explains why I’m such a huge animal lover.
When I’m not working, I love exploring this beautiful globe we have the privilege of stewarding, whether traveling somewhere new or backpacking off the grid for a few days. At home, cooking is my therapy, building things with my hands keeps me grounded, and gardening has become my newest experiment in patience. I’m also learning to play the piano—something I don’t practice nearly as often as I should, but enjoy every time I do.
