As an agency-signed creative with over 20 years of experience, I specialize in the fashion, tech, and lifestyle industries. My passion lies in crafting award-winning narratives that truly connect with audiences.
My career has been filled with joy and opportunity. I've had the honor of designing for iconic brands such as Sephora, Adidas, and Levi's, while also capturing photos of the vibrant energy of Paris Fashion Week.
Although I am traditionally trained, I’m always on the lookout for more innovative ways to incorporate AI technology into my process and workflow.
On a personal note, I love discovering new sushi hotspots, overlanding with my dog, training in the art of 8 limbs, and surfing the North Shore. I have a fondness for foreign accents, cover bands, and all things analog.
My current obsession? Perfumery!
