Creative Juicer.  People Passionate.  Mother of Dragons.  World Wanderer.  Old-skool-hiphop-for-lifer.  Wiener dog obsessed.  Hot sauce lover.  Striving surfer.

I am fortunate to have collaborated with some amazingly talented people and solid brands thus far in my creative career.  I’m grateful for the multiple creative direction opportunities that have allowed me to dive deep across branding, digital promotional campaigns, visual/ux design, fashion design and photography, working for companies including Google Play, Google Shopping, Android Market and LVMH.  I have also literally dove headfirst into mountains of fabric in the LA garment district while sourcing for my childrens clothing brand, and have also sweat my face off dressing and wrangling my mini models for the Bash + Sass kittenwalk shows at NYFW and LAFW (countless gummy bears were sacrificed).

I’m inspired by the Power of Connection and People.  Everyone has a story and I love learning about how people think, make decisions, create and how their cultures/locations touch everything.  Its people who design amazing experiences / art.  Its people who create music / films that take you to another world.  Its people who influence and push you to be a better you.  Understanding people is key to understanding how to connect. It sounds so simple, but its my critical baseline for how I approach leadership (and *ahem motherhood) and creative projects that will impact others.  My kids spark the flames that push me to do what I love.  I try to lead by example, so they see mama walkin’ the walk and I aspire to use my creative abilities for good.  

I’m originally from “The D” (we’re so proud of you Eminem), am currently based in San Francisco, CA and always looking forward to the next international travel destination (24 countries + counting).  Last but not least, I will always involuntarily shake my booty when “Saturday” by De La Soul comes on.
