“Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Design is knowing which ones to keep.”

Growing up on over 50 acres of land, there was countless opportunity to let my imagination run wild and I found it everywhere. From the shapes of the clouds to the tree I’d climb to imagine myself larger than the endless land surrounding me, there was infinite possibilities for creative exploration.

My imagination has been the central part to my passion for design and marketing, as well as my passion for people. In my current role as Marketing Director at Cornerstone Health Care, I manage all social media outlets, maintain the company’s website, and continue to use my creativity to benefit my organization.

My strengths include my customer-centered thinking, competitive attitude, and ability to promote teamwork and collaboration. I believe that none of us can live long enough to capture everything this world has to offer, so we all must live vicariously through each other to grow and learn. I believe there is something to learn from everyone I encounter.

My passion for my profession and desire for continuous learning has led me to High Point University to pursue my graduate degree to further my skills and to cultivate my curiosity. I’m hoping to expand my knowledge in message design and video production, as well as develop more effective skills to implement and evaluate communication campaigns.
