About B
Working in my co-rented store at the Mall of America, I had the most fun when I could share a brand’s story and recommend their products and services. This was a light bulb moment for me:
I love seeing local businesses succeed and thrive.
As a creative designer, I go beyond being a part of the hype-crew (although I am that too); I create foundations with human-first solutions that help form connections within a company’s community, allowing the company and core audience to grow together.
Some of my most memorable career moments:
having a customer’s product sell out on launch day
hitting our sales goal within 8 hours after launch
increased email conversion rate by 10% compared to previous year
designing a top-selling product for a large global brand
collaborating with local designers, copywriters, creatives, and makers
experiencing high levels of engagement on blog posts I designed marketing assets for
seeing strategies and design concepts become real-world content and accomplishments
successfully translating a company’s core values into a completely developed brand and identity
setting up and piloting a monthly sponsored initiative that allowed new creatives to step into the spotlight
Other memorable moments:
In addition to being a marketer, I also ran my own product-based small business. Sweet B was in a locally-shared store at the Mall of America in 2019, selected for the FeMNist Night Market 2020, featured on the Jason Show multiple times through the Minneapolis Craft Market, and ran a successful Kickstarter campaign.
I’m still just as excited to be a designer and marketer as I was when I graduated (ten+ years ago) because I’ve seen how creating human-first visual design and messaging helps form connections within a company’s community and allows the company and core audience to grow together. I take joy in content ideation and creation from start to finish! I love to explore current trends and utilize ones that work cohesively with a company’s desired goals. I take pride in my career and want to make a responsible contribution to the world with a human-centered and nurturing approach.
