As an experienced art director with over 20 years of creative expertise spanning corporate, freelance, and agency roles, I have always been driven by a passion for storytelling and visual communication. My career path has been anything but conventional—each chapter shaped by resilience, growth, and a profound dedication to creating meaningful connections through art.

A pivotal chapter began when my husband and I founded a real estate brokerage, a venture that turned into a successful business. Yet, behind the professional achievements, I faced personal challenges that led to a toxic environment and a period of profound self-destruction. At my lowest point, psilocybin found me, offering light where there had been darkness. Through its healing power, I embarked on a journey of recovery, self-discovery, and purpose.

This transformative experience not only helped me rebuild but awakened me to my true calling: serving others through education and advocacy for psychedelics as a tool for mental health and addiction recovery. Today, I am deeply committed to using my skills as an art director to inspire, educate, and connect people to stories that matter—whether through innovative campaigns, impactful designs, or collaborative projects that foster understanding and change.

Returning to my creative roots has been an integral part of my healing journey. From producing and hosting a podcast that explores the intersection of psychedelics and personal growth to creating content that resonates with diverse audiences, I am rediscovering the power of art as a force for good. My experience in branding, strategy, and storytelling equips me to bring value to any creative team, but it’s my life experiences that fuel my passion to make a lasting impact.

I would love the opportunity to discuss how my journey and skills align with your vision.
