About me

I am an art director that believes in using my passion to power my purpose.

Before my first job, I started to receive recognition for academia and creativity such as: first place in the Secretary of State of Mississippi Creative Promote the Vote Competition and graduating valedictorian with almost 1M in scholarship offers. This continued in college with me being asked to join societies such as Gamma Beta Phi and Kappa Pi International Art Society. After graduating with a B.A in Psychology and a B.F.A., I studied at Miami Ad School where I was awarded by the C.E.O. of for MAS ATL Best Art Direction and MAS ATL Best Advertising for those respective quarters. This and along with other student awards led to me being featured in an Dezeen article highlighting MAS Award Winning Students. In my last year, I was interviewed for MAS Cannes Lions Festival talk on D & I. My experience ranges from BBDO & VMLY&R internships and Facebook's first ever social class all the way to landing a spot at MomentumWW.In my first year after portfolio school, I freelanced for A Brand New Look (Smart Women Promote the Vote products designed were sold at Susan B. Anthony and Girl Scout Museum ), Dagger ATL, Wunderman Thompson, HUE , Billie INC , and Golin Headquarters. I have worked on clients such as: Walmart, Coca-Cola, Disney, McDonald's, General Mills, Jose Curevo, All-State, Ferrara Candy, FedEx, Frito-Lay, and Norwegian Cruise Line. In my personal time, I have been able to grow some of my social media projects to gain a following of 15k-55k. I am also apart of a few non-profit community service organizations. I recently had the honor of being in Adweek's Profiles in Black Creativity.

I enjoy working on projects that help others or make a change in the world.. I believe that creativity is a gift that can be used to make a difference.
