Who tries out for a swim team without knowing how to swim?

 

I do

​

Unafraid of a challenge, and eager to learn new skills, I tend to dive into new opportunities, sometimes, quite literally. 

​

Midwest born and raised. I moved to the Denver area after earning a BFA in Graphic Design at Iowa State University. While there, I also focused on Digital Media and minored in Design Studies.

​

For me, the best designs are born out of research, purpose, and collaboration. They're cohesive, and work across multiple mediums. Yes, that all sounds very mathematical for a creative, but I've always lived in that middle ground of  wild imagination and organized logic.

​

When I’m not hidden away behind a computer, I can be found at a movie theater, playing bar trivia, traveling, drawing, finishing a house project, looking for inspiration, teaching myself some sort of craft, heading to a National Park, or spending time with my husband and three odd pets.

​

Also, to follow up on the swim team, I got on the team, became a lifeguard, a pool manager, taught hundreds of kids how to swim, and became SCUBA certified.
