It's always been about stories for me. It's an art form that shares the human experience and helps us relate to one another and thus is a thread that connects us all.

It's why I pursued an interest in journalism, but in the end, I needed wider creative parameters for the work I wanted to do. I pulled from experience in writing, filmmaking, photography and news production to find a niche where a brand or business' story could be more than a mission statement. It could allow them to connect to people in more personable and meaningful ways.

I believe in a work ethic that strives for collaboration over competition. It's why the experiences I've built with clients are governed by creative consultation and shared ideas. It's that process that led me to Quay, both the starting point and the ending place of a journey. The creative journey, thus, starts here.  

My work aims to create the feeling that no matter how global the world is, we can have a sense of mom and pop shops and local community storefronts even when we are online. Where businesses aren't just online stores but creators, people, this is the work I strive to create; this is the work that brings me joy. In helping brands, in helping people, share their stories.
