Art and Creative Director
Biography
I’m a Minneapolis-based Creative Director and Art Director with 10+ years of experience developing brand-driven creative across lifestyle, retail, editorial, and e-commerce. I bring together creative strategy, visual direction, photography, styling, and production to turn brand goals into thoughtful, distinctive work.
I’ve partnered with brands at every stage of the creative process—from assessing a brand’s identity and audience to defining a visual direction, building concepts, and bringing them to life across campaigns, digital, social, print, and experiential work. My approach is both strategic and hands-on, with a focus on creating work that feels true to the brand while connecting with the people it’s meant for.
After traveling to more than 50 countries and all 50 states, I’ve learned to find strong visual stories in a wide range of environments, people, and perspectives. That experience continues to shape how I approach creative problems: stay curious, understand the context, and make something that feels considered rather than expected.
