HELLLLOOOOO!

SOME WORDS ABOUT ME. First off, I don't know which is more weird: talking about yourself in the 3rd person on your own website or tooting your own horn for a whole page with "I this" "I that."  Both are cringeworthy, but I'm going to go with saying "I" and try to keep it short and sweet. I was born in Florida (don't judge), moved to Asheville, North Carolina for my formative years, was groomed for the ad world at the Adcenter (now Brandcenter), and then made a ton of work with great people in 15+ years at various NYC agencies. I’m now in the Bay area pushing munchies and in my spare time gardening, cooking, throwing pottery, exploring and enjoying the sun!
