Well, hi! I'm Maddie!

I was born in a small town in Kentucky, spent much of my adult life in Ohio, and recently made my home in Oregon. I fell in love with the beauty of the Pacific Northwest—and, of course, the incredible coffee!
 

I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Columbus College of Art and Design. Early in my career, I worked with in-house marketing teams, where I honed my skills in visual storytelling and brand strategy. Over time, I discovered my passion for turning complex concepts into clear, visually compelling designs. Whether it’s a rough sketch on a cocktail napkin or data buried in an Excel sheet, my passion is transforming ideas into visuals that are both engaging and easy to digest.
 

In 2023, I had the exciting opportunity to support the development of an internal training team. This experience led me to pursue a Graduate Certificate in Instructional Design from Oregon State University. This field has allowed me to blend my background in design, brand implementation, and strategic problem-solving into immersive multimedia experiences. I've developed a wide range of eLearning solutions, including gamified content, branching scenarios, animations, interactive PowerPoints, and handouts for in-person training sessions.
 

I'm eager to bring my passion, creativity, and experience to my next opportunity. I look forward to connecting with you!
