I’m a designer and art director who’s passionate about creating thoughtful, impactful work that connects brands with people in meaningful ways.

Growing up with both of my parents serving in the Air Force, adaptability and curiosity became second nature. Those early experiences shaped how I see the world and gave me a knack for finding creativity in constant change.

I studied Graphic Design and Advertising at Abilene Christian University, where I gained hands-on experience working with ACU Press designing book marketing materials, as well as internships with Page Agency and Hexbug. Those opportunities sparked my love for
advertising, packaging, and digital storytelling.

Since then, my career has taken me through roles at PAVLOV Agency, freelance work, and ultimately to Schaefer Advertising, where I’ve grown from Graphic Designer to Art Director. Along the way, I’ve worked on multi-platform campaigns, packaging, websites, social campaigns, digital assets, videos, and branding. Today, as an Art Director, I lead projects with a focus on big-picture thinking — guiding strategy and creative direction from the very beginning through the final execution. I thrive on bringing ideas to life and helping clients shape their vision into something powerful and cohesive.

Outside of work, I’m energized by movement and making. You’ll often find me on a pickleball court, hiking new trails, designing custom wedding invitations, or taking on a house project. It all falls under the category of “creative pursuits” — or at least that’s what I tell myself when I’m at Home Depot for the third time in a week.
