A self-portrait, in space.
WORK EXPERIENCE

Hey, I'm Andrea

I’m a design leader with 20 years of design experience and 10 years of leadership.

Resume
01

Award-Winning Multidisciplinary Designer & Creative

My career has spanned advertising, branding, interactive, and UI/UX, with major clients including Suzuki, Verizon, SanDisk, and Nokia.

02

Mentor

I've helped hundreds of designers and creatives—from beginners developing their portfolios and getting started in the industry, to senior level designers and creatives leveling up their skills and doing their best work.

03

Leader

I believe leadership and management is it's own skill set, not just a senior position. I'm a proven leader with real management skills, including the boring stuff like schedules and performance reviews. I build happy, productive, empowered teams.

A few things

  • My now-mostly-abandoned food blog was once considered for a TV show
  • I have an irresponsible number of plants
  • One of my campaigns was the subject of a piece by Ed Helms on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart
