I have lived all over the US and abroad which has given me opportunities to absorb cultures and ideas while comfortably learning to assimilate to change through solution-based, pragmatic approaches. My passions, and what I continue to learn, have allowed me to help create the visual identity of the largest selling video game franchise in the world, have given me the chance to build and restructure multiple educational institutions from branding, to culture, to curriculum development, to budgets, to procurement of resources, to leading amazing creative teams, to teaching. I've continued to cultivate diverse skill sets that fuel my innovation for driving engagement through research, collaboration, understanding how people thrive, and divergent creativity.
