Hey, I'm Colleen!

 I’m a multidisciplinary designer who is looking to pivot to a full-time career in design after a stint in coaching. After completing my BFA in New Media Design in 2020, I pursued personal training and athletic coaching as my collegiate rowing career left me inspired. But even in these coaching endeavers, I never left design far behind.

While working as a trainer, I created Bring It Fitness.

Then, during my most recent position at a local rowing club I worked as their content designer and social media manager, and collaborated with a branding agency called Point One Percent, on a rebrand.

These experiences have led me fully back into the world of design, and I am excited to continue building my career.

Design Experience
