Creative Direction / Brand Strategy / Storytelling

NOT EVERYTHING NEEDS TO SHOUT TO BE HEARD.

I’m a creative director, strategist, and storyteller who leads with emotional intelligence and aesthetic clarity. I bring brands, spaces, and narratives to life by tuning into rhythm, meaning, and how things make people feel.

SELECTED WORKS

A short-form video created to introduce good neighbor’s new thank-you cards. This piece was conceived, shot, and edited end-to-end, marking my first foray into moving image. Rooted in warmth and tactile memory, the video offers a quiet reflection on presence, attention, and gratitude.

Project: guesthouse by good neighbor

Role: Brand Strategy, Naming, Visual Direction

Developed and led the brand strategy for guesthouse by good neighbor, a boutique hospitality space layered above the café. My focus was on crafting a tone of quiet refuge—where hospitality feels like care and every detail contributes to a larger rhythm of design, intention, and comfort.
