About Amanda
Love is where my story begins. I discovered my creative talents through my love of animals. They inspired me as a child to first pick up a pencil and begin to draw, and those early artistic expressions developed over the years into honed artistic ability. In time, my creative interests ventured into design, which became my creative career focus. However, my roots in fine art endure along with the love for the animals that first inspired a creative spark.
Today, my creative interests and talents traverse media: from fine art and illustration to digital art, graphic design, digital design, creative writing, and photography. I’m a lifelong dreamer and maker, and I enjoy exploring any and all creative avenues. In addition to my day job as an agency art director, I am a practicing fine artist and photographer. These combined skillsets have served my clients well and have allowed me to enjoy a well-rounded creative career.
During my agency experience I’ve been fortunate to work alongside creative professionals who have instilled in me a mature aesthetic and a strong work ethic. I have enjoyed dynamic creative leadership and have been given opportunities to learn, grow and shine. I approach projects with enthusiasm and thoughtfulness, always with the best interest of the client in mind. I enjoy fast-paced and challenging creative environments that offer opportunity and encourage growth.
In the end, love is what drives my creative work. A love for creating something new and special, love for my team and my clients, and love, of course, for the work itself.
