About ME

I am a passionate, purpose driven design leader. I was lucky to have started my career at Target and learned so much in my 15 years in different creative positions. I now run my own design consulting business and am the co-founder of a new consumer brand, Auntie. I loved challenging the status quo and envisioning what the future of design and retail could be.  

Outside of that, I have deep ties to the design community, focusing my efforts on design education. I started teaching design at universities at night in 2019. I have mentored hundreds of students and young design professionals to identify their what makes them special and tell their unique story. I teach as much as I can because seeing humans grow is magical.   

I live in Minneapolis, Minnesota with my husband and two tennis ball obsessed dogs. I love being outdoors, fly fishing, hiking, and drinking coffee. I am always experimenting in the kitchen with new, tasty ingredients and dishes.

My site is consists of finished photos of some of the product I have developed. Please reach out if you would like to see process, ideation, storytelling, or brand work.

Thank you!
