A little about me.

(I’m a school-loving nerd)

Hello–

­­­­I'm Molly, a seasoned design director with a knack for creating captivating brand narratives. Over the span of more than two decades, I've had the privilege of leaving my mark on the industry by leading award-winning projects for Fortune 500 giants such as Amazon, IBM, Starbucks, and Target.

But my journey has been more than practical experience; I've also shared my expertise as faculty at Michigan State University and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. This blend of academic rigor and real-world insight infuses my work ethos with a depth and perspective that resonates with clients and team-members alike.

For me, effective branding is more than just visuals; it's about distilling a company's essence – its history, values, and aspirations – into a narrative that inspires and engages. It's this philosophy that underpins my approach to every project I undertake.

My leadership style is founded on creativity, collaboration, and an unyielding commitment to excellence. I've found that by fostering a culture of openness and innovation, I can consistently deliver transformative results that exceed expectations. And with a talent for attracting top team members, I not only bring my own skills to the table but also cultivate an environment where ambitious ideas flourish into reality.

As I continue to push the boundaries that shape the landscape of brand expression, I remain dedicated to helping brands forge meaningful connections with their audiences in an ever-evolving digital world.

I’m currently a Creative Director/Design Director in Seattle. As a 200hr certified yoga instructor and Boston qualified marathoner I’m typically designing, reading, running, sleeping or eating. But mostly eating.
