Hi, I’m Carly.

Strategic Thinker, Creative Team Leader & Cross-Functional Collaborator.

Leveraging 20+ years of experience to lead teams to effective & inspired design solutions through process based problem solving. Knowing where the finish line is empowers everyone to spend more time exploring creative.

I grew up in Seattle. I love coffee, rain and plaid.

Working with typography is my favorite aspect of design. From creating and kerning to logos and layout. I am amazed by the beauty of letterforms and integrating type.

On Saturdays I create furniture as a creative outlet. Walnut is my plank of choice. Woodworking has given me a better understanding of dimensional design and how to implement design revisions without Command Z. If I am not at the woodshop, you might find me turning laps at the racetrack in a Subaru STi or enjoying a Damn Fine Cup of Coffee.
