About

Hey there, I’m Ellen! I’m a Creative Director with 10 years of experience bringing ideas to life and creating work that connects with people. I earned a BFA from the University of Michigan, and I’ve always believed the strongest work comes from collaboration, trust, and a team that’s excited to build something together.

I’m passionate about mentoring and leading teams, and my sports background has shaped a lot of how I lead. I spent seven years coaching lacrosse, and it still influences how I show up: supportive, direct, and always pushing for the best version of the work (and the people behind it).

These days, I’m channeling that same energy into pottery — currently getting humbled by tall vases — and if I’m not designing or covered in clay, you can probably find me line dancing somewhere in Nashville.
