Hi! I'm Skylar, a shamelessly type-A creative with a background in production design, digital design, and brand identity work. As you might find on any of my extensive Pinterest boards, I am driven by the connection between aesthetics and marketing strategy. I aspire to lead teams in building impactful, uplifting, and cohesive brand storytelling that connects with audiences across platforms. 

Growing up in Oakland, CA and in and around Silicon Valley gave me the unique opportunity to recognize the importance of diverse perspectives, intentional media creation, and the understanding of fast-moving tech culture. Ads are everywhere, I want to be a part of making them!

I'm currently pursuing BAs in Film and Digital Media and Creative Technologies at the University of California Santa Cruz ('26). The latter half of my college experience has been focused on art directing short films that have been shown at several film festivals across California to help understand how to communicate most effectively through filmic and visual lenses. Through my coursework and involvement with UCSC's Film Production Coalition, I've developed a strong foundation in concept development, creative problem-solving, and cross-disciplinary collaboration, skills I can't wait to bring to an agency environment. 


 

TL;DR: I'm an aspiring art director with a background in production design and digital design. I love making projects look their best whilst communicating uplifting and underrepresented stories with audiences most effectively.  

 

 

Fun facts about me: I love R&B music-seriously, send me your favorite album!

Thai yellow curry with tofu & sticky rice is my death row meal. 

I'm a big daredevil- rollercoasters or skydiving, sign me up!

Let's Work Together!
