Business Development Strategist / Lead Designer
I began my professional career after graduating from Hussian College (Hussian School of Art) in Philadelphia. As a marketing designer, I was fortunate to have exciting opportunities including a stretch as The Philadelphia Zoo's Graphics / Exhibits manager and design coordinator of multi-million dollar tradeshow exhibitions for DuPont USA.
Then, as a designer for a variety of client industries, I gained invaluable insight working alongside corporate leaders and their teams. I came to understand that every marketing strategy must be clearly focused on a carefully calculated return on investment, inspiring me to broaden my knowledge beyond design. I returned to school to formally study business, earning an undergraduate degree in marketing at Ursinus College and an MBA at West Chester University of Pennsylvania.
In 2020, with many years of experience and my stubborn desire to bring the highest quality strategies, design and technical solutions to my clients, I continue to explore and execute with the latest software, design tools, data management and code platforms.
