I am a multidisciplinary creative contributor and leader living around the evergreen forests, mountains, and briny, wind-swept waters of the Pacific Northwest. I’m happy to roll my sleeves up and tackle projects as a contributor or pivot into providing creative leadership to support organizational goals.

I specialize in creating engaging experiences that bring surprise and delight to users and audiences in products, games, and media. Additionally, I have extensive experience in designing experiences and contributing design leadership for product experiences in Education Technology.

My process begins with understanding the business or client objective for the overall product and/or game experience and the end-user/player experience. Design considerations include customers who may be involved in the product evaluation and purchase decisions. I work cross-functionally across teams, groups, and departments.

My design approach is holistic and systems-thinking, with empathy towards both users and customers while also balancing design vision within an organization’s broader business objective and the overall market landscape. All with a generous sprinkling of fun and delight!—“Sparklemagique!”
