    Summary: I specialize in motion graphics for digital advertising, with particular expertise in animating HTML5 display ads. With more than 15 years of experience in animation and digital production, working with me is a seamless experience. I'm reliable, efficient, and I pay pixel-perfect attention to quality and detail. I love using animation to breathe life into all kinds of creative deliverables: HTML5 banners, paid and organic social media content, out-of-home advertising, animated GIFs & icons, and anything else that needs to move. It's wonderful how much more eye-catching, engaging, and impactful anything can be with just a bit of motion! I've worked at (and with) ad agencies, tech companies, and in-house, and always enjoy collaborating with new teams. Want to work together? I would love to help make your ad campaigns shine! ✦ Comfortable with both timeline animation (Adobe Animate CC, After Effects) and hand-coding (HTML, CSS, GSAP), and can adapt to any team's preferred tools and workflows. ✦ Experienced in developing dynamic, rich media, and responsive ads for desktop and mobile. ✦ Up-to-date with evolving social media platforms, creative formats, specs, and trends. ✦ Highly collaborative and able to communicate effectively across teams at all levels of an organization. ✦ Somewhat of a cat whisperer. True.

    Summary: I have a passion for art, design, craft, and a DIY ethic to match. Non-profits and corporations with a conscience and an eye toward social justice are my dream clients. I have a talent for describing and packaging others’ work and messages. I do this primarily through visual design, but also through the design of processes and recommendations for best practices. A recent housing NFP client stated, “I am very impressed with the aesthetic and appreciate the built-in simplicity to make ongoing management and content development as easy as possible for us.” I believe accessibility at all levels results in the widest reach in the clearest way (plus great SEO). My breadth of experience saved SFMC time and money by eliminating the need to hire outside consultants. I worked my way up from Ad Designer to Production Manager, and was later asked to take on the role of Creative Director. I streamlined what had been three workflows into one, increasing our productivity three-fold. At SF Symphony, I became the prototype for a new Web Producer role that had previously been two: Content Manager and Web Design Assistant. Excellent customer service is a cornerstone of my work, which has allowed me to thrive in freelance roles. S P E C I A L T I E S I am frequently told that I'm a great listener. I distill what I hear into needs and wants, and then create solutions to make them into reality. I am a unique blend of graphic, web, and print designer, web developer, and project manager with a background in advertising, publishing, fine art, and freelance. I am frequently called upon to lead. I believe good work speaks for itself. I push for equal representation of all walks of life in all forms of media. I have a talent for organizing projects and events. I have a driving need to understand and get my hands–when asked–on as much of a project as possible, which strengthens and informs future endeavors. Let's talk!
