Be Kind. Do Great Work.
I’m a seasoned creative director in San Francisco. I currently lead a team of multi-talented designers at Meta — I take great pride in mentoring them, and watching them thrive and grow professionally. Outside of managing, I am passionate about brand strategy, sustainable packaging, and solving complex problems with data and design thinking.
I’m extroverted, collaborative, empathetic and tenacious…I’ve been called the “Team Cheerleader” in more than one workplace and I’m proud of that.
>> Interests: live music, sustainability, community building, cooking, natural wine, hiking, ceramics, dogs, Facebook Marketplace finds and plants of all kind.

Testimonials
“Liz is, without question, one of the best designers I've worked with. Before her promotion to Design Lead, she was the designer for a number of my web projects across the Meta for Business website...she has a winning combination of customer centricity, design sense and business acumen. She has the ability to think long-term and big picture, deftly wielding creative tools and design systems that allow her team to scale and develop high-performing creatives. Her quick thinking and depth of knowledge across visual, brand, and interactive design allows her to give feedback to her team with grace and precision; she's solution-oriented and a highly effective communicator.”

Senior web manager, Gong
“Liz is one of the most creative, inspiring, and resourceful people I know. At Six Spoke Media, she built our Creative Services team from the ground up. She is a person not only with big ideas, but with the follow through to execute them. Working with Liz was one of my favorite parts of my job.”
— Lauren Bates
founder & CEO, Wild Terrains
“It's easy for me to glow when talking about Liz, and getting to work with Liz, as she was a an integral part of our Levi’s team from the moment she joined in Oct 2018. I had the opportunity to manage her and a small group of other designers and Liz was always a bright spot; optimistic, kind, creative, organized, inquisitive, clever, are some key attributes that come to mind when reflecting back on our time together.”
