For 20+ years, I have collaborated with incredible people to produce thoughtful, celebratory, and engaging products and brands.
Through my work and life, the impact made and the impression left on people and the earth are very important to me. I try to prioritize choosing sustainable solutions and materials when possible, mindfulness of time, and focusing on connection, community, and culture throughout any project or relationship. A few years ago, I earned a certification in Integrative Health Coaching following a year of night school study—because when people feel their best, they create and do even better. Being a partner in the growth of a brand or individual is what moves me.
Proudly from Cincinnati, Ohio, I spent my youth creating art, riding bikes, swimming, using my imagination, and cultivating my entrepreneurial spirit…I attempted to turn every hobby into a business or product. Motivation was the fun of the plan, the teamwork, the success of the execution, and the happiness of the customers. This is still my M.O.
My adult years were mostly shared between Cleveland and New York City—my grandparents’ roots in both influence my deep connection to each. I now live in Los Angeles with my designer turned creative-technologist husband, Phillip. We miss our puggle, Rocco, our love for 15 years. I long to fill my free time with painting or scene study classes, but those are on pause at the moment. I spend time enjoying and styling our 1930s Spanish Revival Colonial home (we have outdoor space!), reading, exploring California, volunteering, sipping good bourbon, and trying new restaurants.
