CURRENTLY
I work at Nike as a Color Designer II for Women’s Lifestyle Apparel (Nike Sportswear).
I’m the co-author of the book, Fashion Palettes, published by Hoaki Books (2024). Available wherever books are sold.
I’m the founder and organizer of Portland Paper Club, a weekly event series devoted to paper arts & crafts.
COLOR IS MY LANGUAGE
I’m a colorist, designer and writer. I specialize in communication through color. Color is my language and central to my work.
I have 15 years’ experience working with global brands in the fashion, footwear and product space.
With roots in fashion, I’ve brought my skill set to brands in multiple industries, including publishing, technology, education, food and consumer electronics.
My strengths lie in my intuition, curiosity and ability to communicate, be it through words or images.
Through work, my highest aim is to connect with others, by creating inspiring and emotionally resonant experiences.
I’m open to all creative opportunities — please reach out if you’re interested in collaborating.
