I’m a dog person and Friends fanatic. I prefer comfort movies over food and I’m obsessed with beautiful packaging. I will consciously decide to buy a product for the packaging/design alone.
While my background is extensive, having studied Sociology and Communications as well as Business and Graphic Design, all in post-secondary education, my passion for creativity has always shown through. From artistic hobbies to wanting to take a trip to the store so I can look at new packages and beautiful labels to travelling to other countries and coming home with photographs of ads and campaigns I saw while away . . . I like to think I’m creatively geeky.
I share many more creative tidbits, case studies and hobbies in my BLOG.
If you’re inclined, reach out – I’d love to get to know you too.
