ABOUT ME

A passionate Creative Director with 15 years in the design and advertising space, currently based in the vibrant Metro Washington DC area. My professional journey has been a thrilling ride through the realms of design and creativity, and I'm excited to share a glimpse into my world. Professional Background: I am currently channeling my creativity as a Creative Director at Freddie Mac Multifamily, where I collaborate closely with the Marketing Communications Director to orchestrate large-scale digital campaigns. My focus revolves around driving brand recognition through innovative strategies. Specializing in web and mobile product design, my expertise extends across various domains, including digital and in-person conferences, online learning, digital marketing, email campaigns, and social media assets. In my previous roles, I've had the privilege of contributing my creative touch as an Art Director for Rosetta Stone where I introduced an early version of AI generative design that maximized efficiency to our department's workflow, a User Experience Designer for USAToday, and a Designer for Discovery Channel and LMO Advertising. These experiences have allowed me to collaborate with award-winning creative teams associated with renowned brands such as NFL, NBA, Vans, Vanity Fair, HBO, Nordstroms, Macy's, and VISA, among others. Artistic Pursuits: Beyond my work in advertising, I'm deeply involved in the thriving art gallery scene in Metropolitan DC, where I showcase creations including but not limited to digital art, traditional painting, augmented and virtual reality. This parallel journey into the world of art events adds another layer to my creative expression. Multifaceted Content Creator: In the digital sphere, I am recognized as one of the top content creators, particularly for my video reels, within the Insta360 app community. It's a platform where I get to explore my creative boundaries and experiment with cutting-edge content creation.
