Hello! I’m a creative director and design leader focused on experiential and other complex special projects. I draw on my background in creative technology and architecture to lead interdisciplinary design teams from concept through production, driving design excellence and business results. My clients have included some of the world’s leading brands, including Cartier, Google, PUMA and MGM.

I live in NYC, drawing on the buzz of the city to do my best work. I’m voraciously curious about process and craft, and committed to the alchemy of collaboration and teamwork. I’m as comfortable presenting to C-Suite executives as I am talking shop with technologists because I like solving problems—in business and design. I have worked in this field for over a decade; it continues to inspire me with its breadth, its complexity, and its transformative potential.

Currently I’m Creative Director & Head of Design at Future Colossal, where I lead experiential and themed-entertainment projects and FC’s design services. Previously, I worked with ESI Design, creating architectural media experiences and providing account-level creative direction on multi-year, 8-figure projects. I worked for IBM as a Design Director for Events and Environments, focusing on IBM’s flagship Think conference. I’ve also worked at the award-winning experiential agencies Fake Love and Obscura Digital, creating delightful interactives and large-scale media activations such as the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque Illumination.

I studied architecture and art: I earned a Master of Design Research from SCI-Arc and a B.A. in Conceptual and Information Art from SFSU. I believe in community and participate through exhibitions and education. In addition to my work as a designer, I exhibit my artwork internationally and teach courses and workshops, including for the School of Visual Arts, Stanford University, Carnegie Mellon University, and Arizona State University.
