A creative career.
An expanding toolkit.

My background spans retail art direction, photography, video, brand development, and business leadership. I’ve directed seasonal catalogs for Belk, built integrated property campaigns, and led people through the everyday work of delivery.

I like making
the whole thing work.

Today, I’m also applying that experience to AI: defining useful products, shaping workflows, and directing AI-assisted building. The medium keeps changing. The need for a clear idea, thoughtful execution, and sound judgment remains.
