This is what I do

It’s hard to show what I do in a SINGLE job title. This might help. 

Photojournalism

My journey into design began with a camera in hand. As a globally published photojournalist, I learned how to capture truth, emotion, and story in a single frame. That eye for storytelling later carried into filmmaking — producing two full-length documentaries, including one alongside radio legend Bob Edwards with American University and MHz Networks. Photography may have been my first love, but it continues to inspire the way I design today. See my photos here

Brand Design

I have experience creating and shaping corporate identities — from logos to websites to social media. Every detail is carefully crafted to deliver visuals that not only look great but also tell your story across platforms, whether it’s online, at a trade show, or in defining your brand.

Strategic Communication

I served as Director of Communication for a political party in Northwest Florida and as a digital and communications specialist for a nationally recognized congressional candidate. In both roles, I focused on shaping messages that built bridges rather than deepening divides, creating communication strategies that connected with people on common ground.

Human-Centered Design

I’m deeply experienced in UX design and the iterative cycles of design thinking. I’ve applied these principles in my own work, led workshops, and taught the fundamentals to both designers and non-designers. I’m also a member of the Interaction Design Foundation and NN/g Certified in UX Management. My path from photography to design has always centered on one goal: using creativity and empathy to craft experiences that connect people to something greater.
