About 8 years ago I decided it was time to marry my personal passions for creativity and living an active outdoor lifestyle with my professional passion for delivering incredible marketing experiences with brands focused on the outdoor active lifestyle, authenticity and creativity. With an education rooted in design, complimented by 15+ years of experiential marketing, project management, exhibit design, brand activations and team leadership I am ready for whatever is thrown at me. I get excited about being in the boardroom brainstorming with the team one day, getting my hands dirty executing the next and all of the chaos in between. The whole concept-to-completion project cycle is what makes it fun for me and if it's not fun than what's the point. I am excited to show you what I have done and what I am capable of.
