Summary
I am an empathetic and motivated creative with a background in customer experience and 10 years in the digital marketing realm. I thrive in environments that push me to think outside the box, and seek experiences that challenge me to grow as a person. As a fierce animal advocate, I have dedicated many years to rescue outreach and conservation, which have shown me the invaluable pairing of compassion and determination. My soul yearns to create art, as I believe it is the language of the human soul.
