I am an award winning interactive art director & an inspired mountain ambassador for Cloudveil.

With more than 10 years of professional design experience in traditional, non-traditional & interactive media, I have worked both on the agency side as an art director and on the client side as an in-house interactive designer. My love for the visual arts started at a young age when I won my first design award: a first place medal for a poster design contest in 3rd grade. Throughout the years I have continued to grow my passion by earning a dual BFA in Communication Design & Commercial Photography at the Art Institute of Atlanta, and throughout my career have been awarded more than 20 Drake & Northwest ADDY Awards.

My passion for the outdoors led me to Oregon after exploring the rivers of the Pacific Northwest in a whitewater kayak during college in Atlanta, Georgia. It quickly became apparent to me that the Cascade Mountains had more to offer than just the snow-melt in the spring, and I traded in winter whitewater kayaking for two planks and a pair of alpine touring bindings. Seven years after stepping into my first ski setup, I have now logged over 300 days on Mt. Bachelor and also enjoyed skiing all over the West coast of the U.S. and Canada. Being named an inspired mountain ambassador for Cloudveil is one of my proudest accomplishments, and allows me to continuously push myself as well as inspire others by sharing my love for the outdoors in the Cloudveil community.
