My top five strengths as defined by the Strengthsfinder gallup test.

 

Community Engaged

I volunteer my time to support students, women, and mentoring in the design community. I am IDSA Chair, Women in Design Committee. I am on the Board of Women in Design Chicago, and I am on the MIAD Product Advisory Board. I often give talks and support student projects, portfolio reviews and 1:1 mentor less experienced designers.

AT HOME

When I'm at home, living on a small lake house in Michigan, I can be found at the gym, practicing yoga, or spending quality time with my family. My husband has been teaching me to fly fish!
