About
15 years ago, I would have told you that I didn’t possess the characteristics that I would use to describe myself today. I would have used phrases such as “I do design” or “I am a photographer.”
Because of my career, and its ability to have stretched me beyond what I thought my limits were, I know now that even though I am damn good at the design aspect, my core strengths aren’t in that category like many of those who are in my industry.
Now my strengths sound something like this:
Given time, I can figure out most anything
I can troubleshoot like no other
I am a great strategist and long-term thinker
I have clarity and vision with projects, and I can dial in on micro aspects in crazy ways while keeping big vision/scope in mind
I have an almost maddening ability to point out off scaling, color or quality differences
I have a thrifty mind with an eye for quality
I don’t mind setbacks
I don’t mind lunatic deadlines
I love collaboration
I can deal with hard people
I can convince almost anyone of anything if I truly believe in it
I am a lover of knowledge, the body, travel, new experiences, self-care, big projects, collaboration, clean design. I imagine possibility, invest in adventures, and tackle the yet-to-be-tried.
I enjoy pushing myself — the place where real change happens, seek out teaching and wisdom from those who know more than I, and use my gifts of big vision and strategy to create beautiful content for both small clients and larger brands.
