Calling | To Tell A Good Story

Extracurriculars | When I am not designing something, writing something, or rehearsing something, you’ll likely find me rearranging my furniture…again. I love theatre, improv, storytelling, and performance art. It’s a great day if I find a film that makes me cry.

Path | After studying design at university, I was lucky enough to land an agency role in sunny Sydney Australia. I cut my teeth working on retail displays and campaigns for huge brands in Australia and the larger southern hemisphere. After a few years of failed surfing lessons and eating Vegimite, I returned to my home in very rainy Portland, Oregon, where I now enjoy designing campaigns, writing short bits, and practicing my storytelling.

Extracurriculars | All things family. Running, yoga, hiking, crystal therapy with a dash of essential oils, a good Netflix binge, long walks on the beach and short drives to the city.

Path | Born and raised Bostonian, so naturally, a sports fan (especially Patriots and Red Sox). Went to college to play soccer and broadcast baseball games. Tucked away in the woods of New Hampshire, earned a BA in Communications and an MBA in Leadership at Franklin Pierce University. After graduating, Amanda worked at her alma mater, most recently serving as their Director of Marketing. She still lives in Massachusetts with her husband Cody and free-spirited daughter Makenna.

Path | Born and raised in Arizona, I grew up escaping the summer heat at a sleepaway camp up north. During these summers in the pines, I discovered how closely creativity is tied to my sense of personal fulfillment. I eventually ventured south to get my BFA in Graphic Design at the University of Arizona, where I focused on developing my design, photography, and letterpress printmaking skills. After graduation, I moved back to my family roots in Phoenix where I currently reside with my 6-year-old shepherd-mix, Basil.
