What was once just ideas in the back of my brain, turned into forms of expression. Through creative direction I’ve been able to uncover and broadcast my identity through various mediums. Conveying a message through visuals, moods, textures, and creative thinking. My process is built on learning what feels true to me and translating that truth into creative choices.The first step is always about inspiration. Paying homage and acknowledging which creative patterns I gravitate toward. Those patterns are the breadcrumbs leading you back to yourself.

As I kept creating, I started leaning into my tendencies. The way I frame certain images, the colors I gravitate towards, the balance between minimalism and personality. These decisions are reflections of who I am becoming. Creative direction has become a mirror, showing me my instincts before I fully trusted them. Every project, even the ones that didn’t turn out how I planned, taught me something about what felt honest and what didn’t. The more I experimented, the more I realized my identity wasn’t something I needed to invent; it was something I needed to recognize.

Collaboration within creative direction has been the most fulfilling part thus far. This is where the vision comes to life. Fostering a team to work with on a project and watching it come to life brings me a feeling of euphoria. Even when you have a strong idea, bringing that vision to life often requires the perspectives and skills of others to elevate the project. Each person adds a layer you couldn’t create alone. When collaboration is intentional, it transforms a concept into a richer, more dimensional story. It pushes you to think beyond your own lens while still leading with your creative voice.

Working with others is always a great opportunity to communicate and articulate your ideas with clarity and confidence. I’m able to convey the emotions, themes, and visuals I’m aiming for, while staying open to the interpretations and suggestions of my peers. Collaboration sharpens your vision and often times allows you to be more powerful than anything you could have created by yourself. The ability to work on projects that make a meaningful impact remains important to me.
