Expert creative director steering designers beyond traditional skills

I love helping designers grow. Over the past 20+ years, I've worked as a creative leader, educator, and mentor, building teams, developing talent, and leading award-winning work for brands such as Target, Best Buy, T-Mobile, General Mills, Quicken, and Publix. I've also served as an Adjunct Professor, teaching design and business practices and helping students prepare for successful creative careers. I've mentored more than 50 individuals throughout my career, supporting everything from portfolio development and creative direction to leadership growth and career strategy. Every designer's path is different, so my coaching is tailored to the unique goals, strengths, and opportunities of the person I'm working with. Whether you're just starting out, navigating a career transition, or preparing for a leadership position, I can help you identify the next steps and accelerate your growth with practical guidance informed by real-world experience.
