After graduating from UC Berkeley with a degree in history, I found myself at a small startup ad agency called Goodby, Berlin and Silverstein.

While at Goodby I produced work for clients including Sega, Hewlett Packard, The California Milk Processors Board, Sutter Home Winery, eBay, and Norwegian Cruise Lines. I won gold and silver awards, ate extravagant meals and went on glamorous shoots to exotic locations.

Then I had a kid, became a freelancer and moved to Minnesota.

Since then, I have worked on projects and new business pitches for McCann Erickson, Heat, BBDO, Goodby and many others. I have a broad range of experience writing for clients like Google, Netflix, Sprint, Elizabeth Arden, Electronic Arts, Del Monte, Conde Nast, and Microsoft.

Although the freelance lifestyle isn't exactly glamorous, I compensate by listening to the stereo in my mini-van with the bass up just a little too loud.

Oh, and one of my kids became the Kittens Inspired by Kittens Girl.
