Translating Complexity Into Clarity
I help organizations navigate complexity through brand systems, narrative frameworks, and cross-functional creative leadership. I drive creative alignment across disciplines through clear vision, purposeful structure, and deep respect for the collaborative process.
I was literally born in a repurposed school bus, raised off-grid, and shaped by a deep respect for how systems work from the ground up. That lens informs how I lead: with clarity, collaboration, and design rooted in ecological thinking.

I believe in the power of creativity.
Over the last 15+ years, I’ve built creative infrastructure for mission-driven organizations, scaled campaigns across continents, and led teams through ambiguity with grounded systems that unite science, storytelling, and social impact.
I specialize in:
• Designing narrative systems for museums, education orgs, and science initiatives.
• Building modular content operations that scale across teams and platforms.
• Leading cross-disciplinary creative teams toward shared visual clarity.
