About me.
I've always loved both science and art. It was evident early on, when my parents saw that I had repaired my broken Barbie & Ken Dune Buggy and designed Barbie a wedding dress, all in one afternoon.
Fast-forward... After earning a degree in biomedical engineering, I joined a biotech company, where I ultimately served as a project manager, helping to shepherd a drug from clinical trials to FDA approval. I loved it. But I wanted to pursue other passions and moved to NYC to study vocal performance. Along the way, I stumbled into some design projects (another passion), and design has since become a large part of my life.
About you & me.
This right brain / left brain thing can be a challenge sometimes, pulling me in different directions. But, it serves me well in projects such as the ones here on my website.
I bring all of these skills and perspectives to your project,
creating beautiful and functional tools to help you
market yourself, your organization, or your products.
Project Management
My project management role in the biotech industry provides me with the necessary skills to coordinate multiple, interdependent facets of a project, interact effectively with people from a variety of backgrounds, and bring a project in on time and on budget.
I believe that my multi-faceted background provides me with a unique and powerful blend of skills and perspectives that are necessary for your successful marketing: Design, Language, Technology, and Project Management.
Language
I enjoy writing about both technical and artistic subjects. I have a special love for distilling complex information into simple-to-understand language and images. I write copy that is entertaining and catchy, while also being informative.
Design
I've had the pleasure of applying my artistic eye to projects in a variety of areas, including the performing arts, interior design, and the culinary world. In all of my work, I strive to create something—be it a postcard, a CD, or a living room—that not only meets the client's needs, but also moves them.
Technology
My engineering background gives me an edge when it comes to understanding the technical aspects of creative endeavors, be it design software, integrating my work with vendor platforms, or collaborating with technical consultants on web-based projects.
