I have over ten years of experience in digital strategy. The field of product design has become a meeting of my two passions, storytelling and tech design.
In Fall 2023, I enrolled in the MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) – Mastering of Design Thinking certification program to keep up with the latest design process. The draw to the program was the involvement of engineering and business development for product design.
Outside work, I live the typical Colorado native lifestyle of mountains, friends, and family. As a kid, I was in rodeo and participated in team drills and competitions. Though I hung up my belt buckles, I still enjoy watching barrel racing. To serve my curious nature, I love to travel. My last trip was to Tokyo, Japan. The food alone was worth the journey.
I’ve always driven to work with people to develop ideas. I aim to make this world a better place, especially using technology.
For storytelling, I graduated with a B.A. in Political Science. My focus was on journalism for online production and social media. I continued my studies at the University of Colorado at Boulder for graduate studies in Digital Strategy and Marketing, where Apple, Hulu, IDEO, and top ad agencies were on the faculty.
I started my digital strategy career as a Digital Producer for the Denver Post. I was one of the digital news producers covering the Aurora theater shooting, in which the Denver Post won the Pulitzer Prize in 2013.
