Brand Agency Owner and CEO, 16 years
Anabliss Design and Brand Strategy | 1997-2013
For over 16 years, I owned a successful branding agency in Denver, Colorado. As the Director of Branding initiatives, we worked with well-known clients in a wide range of industries, helping rebrand projects and launch extensive marketing campaigns that established a clear market presence. Our team specialized in three key areas of branding: brand strategy, brand design, and brand management.
Brand Strategy
My experience awarded us the ability to refine clear and repeatable processes to build lasting brands that connect with audiences and grow market share.
Brand Design
Our expertise in creating visual systems that achieved tangible results was often recognized in our industry as setting the standard for excellence.Brand Management
In brand management, my agency often functioned as an in-house marketing team, providing full-service support to maintain brand consistency. For others, we developed tools and branded templates that empowered internal teams to execute effectively across multiple platforms.
Founder and Brand Consultant, 8 years
High Tide Consulting | 2017-Present
Relocating to Hawaii offered an opportunity to focus my branding expertise on consulting for entrepreneurs of small and medium-sized businesses seeking strategic growth and market clarity. Working with clients across industries, I’ve delivered new brand strategies, market entry plans, and operational guidance that align with each organization’s vision and goals. My role includes acting as a thought partner to executives, offering solutions that address competitive challenges while fostering brand authenticity.
Director of Marketing and Communications, 4 years
One Love Ministries | 2019-Present
As the Marketing Director of a local non-profit, I developed and executed campaigns to amplify the organization’s mission and community impact. My efforts focused on building meaningful relationships with the existing congregation, volunteers, and community through targeted strategies, effective storytelling, and consistent brand messaging. Balancing limited resources with creative problem-solving, I delivered high-impact campaigns that significantly elevated the organization’s visibility and community recognition.
In 2023, I trained a new Marketing Director and moved into a teaching role within the organization, where I currently serve as a Discipleship Coordinator.
