Director. Designer.
Dog mom. Portland.

Hello. I’m Michelle, a multi-disciplinary creative director and designer passionate about bringing brand stories to life.

Over the past 15+ years, I’ve spearheaded brand expression and digital at-retail campaigns for top brands like Adobe, Nike, Columbia Sportswear, Nordstrom, and more — but that doesn’t mean I treat startups or small businesses any differently. I am a dedicated and solution-driven partner with a proven track record of excellence in design and leadership.

As a mentor, I lead with empathy, transparency, and a growth mindset. As a collaborative partner, I’m an active listener and persuasive speaker. Maybe it's being a native East Coaster, or maybe it's a lack of desire to beat around the bush, but throughout my career, I’ve learned that showing up authentically fosters trust and respect, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
