About
As an instinctual creative, I pride myself on being cultivator of solutions. A lifelong artist, I have always turned to art to provide answers, open doors, inspire others, and motivate change. With a skill set fortified by a wide variety of mediums that span the 2-D and 3-D aspects of design, it is rare that I find a challenge or assignment I can’t bend toward an inspired new direction.
A lifelong Californian, I studied Illustration and Fine Art at the Academy of Art in San Francisco before graduating from The Art Institute of California-San Diego with a BS in Graphic Design. I found that by combining my artistic talent and my desire to protect the environment, I could achieve both professional success and a deep sense of personal satisfaction.
I’m a passionate advocate for the absolute highest standards of sustainability, and I’ve accepted the 2017 Sustainable Business Council Award for Big Business on behalf of prAna, spoken at UCSD on sustainability in the textile industry, and am sought out by vendors and creators alike to audit their processes to meet my exacting standards for environmental responsibility.
My gratitude for the planet we call home drives me to consistently push the envelope on the intersection of beauty and sustainability, and to do so with an uncompromising aesthetic grace.
