A little more about me.
I grew up on a northwest Minnesota farm, near the small town of Bagley. I hold a bachelor of fine arts degree in graphic design and bachelor of arts degree in photography from Minnesota State University-Moorhead (MSUM). Over the last five years I've worked as a Marketing Manager for Rocking Horse Farm and a graphic designer for The Promersberger Company in Fargo, North Dakota. Additionally, I do freelance graphic design and photography.
​
Brainstorming innovative creative ideas and executing engaging design solutions is was drives my passion. I thrive in fast-paced environments where I can be pushed creatively. Although I do well working independently, I also enjoy collaborating with other creatives by talking about work and inspiration. For a brief semester at MSUM, I taught Intro to Graphic Design to help out at the University.
​
Traveling has also been a passion of mine because I think it's important for creatives to step outside of their comfort zone to continue inspiring fresh ideas. Studying abroad for a month in Scotland, Amsterdam and Paris was one of the most gratifying opportunities my studies had to offer me. Since then, I've also experienced Costa Rica and various states around the United States. To view my photography from my travels, check out my photography website.
