Creative Director + Community Leader

Early in her career, Tricia was an active member of AIGA Minnesota and quickly took on leadership positions for two major design events, the AIGA Minnesota Design Show and the Walker Insights Lecture Series. Decades later, Tricia is still involved in AIGA. Currently, she is the moderator for AIGA Minnesota Design Camp®, one of the longest-running design conferences in the Midwest.

Diving in and taking action are common themes in Tricia’s life. Through her roles in local nonprofits, Tricia has been able to support awareness of the opioid epidemic, raise funds for YMCA camp scholarships, support local arts, and connect residents to emergency resources during the pandemic.

Tricia’s history of creative collaboration has helped several organizations move forward to elevate their awareness and reach new goals. These experiences have also provided Tricia with a broader context of organizational goals and challenges beyond branding and communication throughout her career.
