SKILLS

  • With 15 years of experience forging art directors and copywriters in top-tier portfolio schools, I’ve mentored countless creatives and guided hundreds of campaigns to book-worthy completion.

  • Art Direction is my love language. I’m an evangelist for the marriage of message and medium, and my eagle eye for detail has been honed at some of the best shops in the industry. I collaborate with clients and other creatives with ease and present ideas with confidence.

    Accolades include The One Show, D&AD, Communication Arts, ADDYs, Print Magazine and Hatch Best of Show.

  • I’m a disciple in the details of design. Brand identity is my bag, and logo development? Love. I take particular pleasure in working with smaller brands and helping them grow through thoughtful, strategic design.

  • Jack-of-all-Trades? Meet Jen-of-all-Trades. My knack for punchy, expressive, dynamic written communication makes me ideal for marketing communications. Social channels/blogs and other longer format creative writing outlets are where my writing skills shine.

  • My seasoned experience in the advertising education sector complements my agency roster. As the Art Direction Program Director at The Creative Circus and adjunct instructor at The Academy at GSP, I’ve done everything from writing curriculum to running creative workshops for clients like Coca-Cola and Blue Cross Blue Shield.

  • My passion for mentoring young creatives runs deep. I excel and delight in coaching creative teams and in one-on-one mentoring, and pride myself in my ability to develop rapport with fellow creatives at various stages and needs.
