oh, hello
I like to make things
I’m always working on something. From an early age I wanted to learn how to do absolutely anything I thought was cool. Sometimes this didn’t work out so well: after a year of guitar lessons in middle school I was better at philosophical arguments with my teacher than I was at learning chords. Other times it did: a childhood obsession with movies and my dad’s video camera resulted years later in the completion of my first full-length documentary project, “Kegger.”
I eventually found my niche in digital storytelling. Currently I live in Missoula, Montana where have been working online in digital marketing and media. Additionally, I keep my feet firmly in my community by doing the marketing and press for our local community cinema, The Roxy Theater.
I design in the Adobe Suite and Figma. I edit video in Premiere. I build websites (fast ones!) in WordPress and other CMS tools. I build with marketing tools including Hubspot, Pardot/Salesforce, MailChimp and Constant Contact.
When I’m not online you can find me in my garden, out with my dog, or at the movies (go see them in a theater! It’s better!).

what i do
Web + Digital Design
I build clean, intuitive sites. I’ve worked on sites for technology companies, software, small businesses, schools, non-profits, tourism, the list continues. I make sites that are SEO-ready and eye-catching.
Sometimes you don’t need a full website, but instead you’re looking for on-brand digital content to further your web presence. I create social media packages, marketing campaigns, ebooks, newsletters landing pages and more to help you reach your web goals.
Multimedia
I love to tell a good story, short, long and anywhere in between! I have shot and edited several types of stories: news pieces, documentaries, creative projects, promotional pieces and special event work. I’ve produced and directed a full-length documentary feature as well as several shorter media pieces.
In addition to video, I design and animate graphics for projects I work on in After Effects. I can do complimentary pieces for video projects or motion graphic projects meant as standalone pieces.
Consulting
Do you need a web expert to peek at your site? If so, I am available for website consultations. I can review your current site and discuss with you better ways to achieve your online goals. Some of the questions I’ll ask when reviewing your site include:
- Is your website easy to use and navigate?
- Is it easy for you to edit and maintain your current site?
- Is your website optimized for search engines?
- Does your website offer you the functionality you need?
- Are you engaging in local social networks?
I’ll analyze and report to you on what your website is doing well and what can be improved.
