About Me

Born and raised just outside Philly in South Jersey, I grew up a proud Giants fan in deep Eagles territory (yes, that is a big deal). I’ve been creating since I could hold a crayon, starting with the walls.

 

By high school I was diving into design and marketing in between juggling too many jobs to fund my concert habit. Don’t ask how many I’ve been to. I lost count years ago.

 

My creativity is shaped by the world around me: a lifelong love of NASCAR (my dog, James Elliott, is named after Jimmie Johnson and Chase Elliott), an obsession with NY-style pizza (I’d eat it for every meal), and a growing passion for cooking from scratch—yes, I churn my own butter.

 

Outside of work I can be found crate-digging for vinyl, painting, treasure-hunting in antique shops, or out exploring with my not-so-mini dachshund and adventure-loving boyfriend. I’ve got just 12 states left before I hit all 50.
