With over 30 years of experience, I specialize in creating compelling visual stories that build brands from the ground up. As owner of Crooked Tree Creative, I oversee all aspects of design and marketing, delivering cohesive projects that clearly reflect a company's mission and products. Prior to this, I co-founded and served as a creative director at Asheville's Brite Agency, working closely with clients across disciplines. I also refined my expertise as art director at Equivest Finance and Peppertree Resorts, leading efforts to unify branding for 15 resorts. Originally from Spruce Pine, N.C., my Air Force family upbringing exposed me globally. Holding a BA in communication and graphic design from CSU Chico, I remain committed to the Asheville community through board roles and AIGA membership.
