About Me:

I'm a web designer, project manager, and Artistic Director of Annex Theatre.

Every single project is powered by americanos or cold brew coffee. In Capitol Hill, I frequent Analog Coffee, Kaladi Brothers, Cafe Solstice, and Saint John's Bar & Eatery for work and play.

I read The Outline, The Establishment, and the Moon Pie Twitter Feed. I love to watch music videos of St. Vincent, Metric, and Carseat Headrest and I listen to a lot of podcasts.

I adapted the name “growling willow” from a gift given to me by Ylva Mara of Cunning Crow Apothecary. It is a reminder to lead with ferocity and pliancy that sustains empathy, compassion, and motivation in my work.
