Hey there!

Trish, here. I’m a strategic creative professional with 17+ years of experience in art direction and design, complemented by strong project management capabilities. My career spans collaboration with luxury brands in hospitality, gaming, healthcare, banking, and education, where I’ve delivered creative excellence while effectively coordinating complex projects.

My ability to communicate across departments, manage timelines, and maintain brand integrity makes me adept at both creative leadership and project management in fast paced environments.

When I’m not wearing my art director hat, you’ll find me reading books, tending to my indoor jungle, developing a new skill, or hanging out with my family.

I have picked up a few ‘side’ skills in previous years. The first is calligraphy. Fluid, spontaneous, fun—

 

 And the other—indoor jungle. Troubleshooting when problems arise, tending to hundreds of specimens with different personalities and temperaments—this became a training ground for many more explorations. My interests and curiosity inform my creative alchemy—
