About Me

Hi, I’m Maggie. I’m a creative services manager with a design background and an operations brain. I’ve spent the last several years running creative work for multiple dancewear brands: sketching catalogs, directing shoots, keeping social and email on track, and building the systems behind all of it.

When people work with me, they get more than a designer. My work ethic is intense. I don’t like half-finished ideas or mystery timelines. I like a clear plan, honest deadlines, and work that actually gets out into the world.

I’m oddly good at reading people, knowing what will work, and what’s actually going to happen. That means I build processes around how work really moves through a team, not how we wish it would. I care a lot about documentation, clear communication, and making it easy for creative people to do their best work without living in constant fire drills.

I’m happiest inside a growing brand or in-house creative team that’s ready to level up. Give me a team, a pile of projects, and a messy system, and I’ll quietly start putting things in order so the work looks better and the days feel less chaotic.
