Between managing calendars, hitting sales goals, tracking down leads and managing a small team—calendars, notes, and to do lists are essential to getting work done. I build customized dashboards that put all of these in one place and improve team workflows using the web/app Notion.
I specialize in on-location portraits and event coverage. I’m always adding to my fine-art photography series (Visual Noises) for the joy of capturing people, places, and things. Professionally, I offer wedding photography, senior photos, headshots, and event coverage.

Notion Consultating
I Build customized digital dashboards 🚀 for business owners & freelancers that rid the chaos of using multiple organization tools. I provide streamlined views of your current tracking systems.
Notion is an “all in one” web/app that works on any device and stores ideas and information, alongside tasks and other related projects. I help small business owners with teams of 3-5 people streamline their communications and existing workflows into Notion, so everyone is on the same page, using a customized dashboard and other custom pages to store information and record meetings, schedules, and projects. No matter what you need to measure / record, I’ll do my best to find a way to optimize exactly what you’re looking for and train your small team on how to use Notion so you can get up and running with full support.
