ABOUT ME
When I’m not working, I like to step away from the computer and immerse myself in cooking, painting, photography and travel.
I am a creative director working on shopping initiatives at Spinning® and Peak Pilates®. I have been a creative director at CBS-TV and the Motion Picture Association of America focused on re-designing websites and integrating television and film with digital media.
I am a self-starter who champions our users with empathy and compassion deepening engagement. My designs are data-driven.
An alum of University of Wisconsin/Madison and Northwestern University, I believe in the transformative power of learning. This semester I am teaching UI/UX design in a 10 month remote learning bootcamp for several universities.
