Agency Work

A Decade of Growth

From 2008 to 2021, I spent thirteen years at two Dallas-based digital agencies, evolving from an interactive designer into an Interactive Creative Director. It was a formative chapter in my career, one that exposed me to a wide variety of industries, business challenges, and multidisciplinary teams. Working in agency environments meant adapting quickly, balancing competing priorities, and delivering thoughtful digital experiences for organizations ranging from regional businesses to Fortune 500 brands.

Across those years, I partnered with strategists, developers, copywriters, marketers, and executive stakeholders to guide projects from early discovery through launch. My responsibilities grew beyond design into UX strategy, creative direction, project scoping, client presentations, team leadership, and mentoring. Whether building enterprise platforms, ecommerce experiences, campaign microsites, or interactive marketing initiatives, the goal remained the same: create work that was both meaningful for users and effective for the business.

The projects featured below represent a cross-section of that experience. While each engagement had its own objectives and constraints, they all reflect the collaborative approach, systems thinking, and user-centered problem solving that continue to shape how I lead design today.
