Storytelling inspired by beauty and nature
I bring ideas to life for people that care about the greater good. I’m passionate about connecting meaning-making and the arts as well as design that sparks change. My visual storytelling experience spans multiple disciplines, including illustration, painting, graphic design, photography and presentations.
Nature, climate and sustainability are sources of inspiration that provide insights to deeper truths. I encourage a respect of the planet and a socially responsible and generative approach to saving her. My projects use aesthetics and optimism, the ideals of beauty, as a strategy to create hope and a positively imagined future.
Background
I have worked as an art director and project manager of dozens of strategic design projects that provided voice and vision to the collective stories of companies, organizations, institutions and communities. A creative catalyst and skilled facilitator, I draw on aesthetic engagement to spark collaboration and transformation. I have designed websites, presentations and social marketing.
I have directed, written and edited a series of poetic short-form documentary videos that are inspirational and biographical. Curious about what makes people unique, I specialize in stories that explore identity while illuminating broader social issues. I am a firm believer in the notion that reality is often much more interesting than the best fiction.
For more than a decade, I shot editorial and portrait photography in Europe and the United States. I have had exhibitions in San Francisco, Berlin and Munich.
For 7 years, I directed photography programs in Germany and San Francisco. As an art administrator, I authored instructional materials, taught workshops, programmed a “visiting artist” series, and curated exhibitions.
