I grew up in Pensacola, FL, spending weekends at the beach and in the pool. In high school, I joined a TV production program where I found a passion for video editing and production.
I attended the University of Florida (Go Gators!), where I got my undergraduate degree in telecommunications and a minor in business administration. While working on my undergraduate degree, I worked at a live news station that serves Alachua County and surrounding areas. I loved my time at UF so much that I stayed to get my master’s degree in mass communication. During graduate school, I worked as a graphic designer and marketing specialist at a local real estate company in Gainesville.
After graduating, I headed to Atlanta, where I joined Vickers Design Group as the team’s Director of Marketing, and I am so excited to be here! In my free time, I enjoy hiking, hanging out at local coffee shops, and listening to live music.

At Vickers Design Group, I’m the resident girl with an accent. Born, raised, and educated on Long Island, I never imagined I would land in the south. But here I am, and I am glad I came. Don’t get me wrong—I miss the beach, bagels, and pizza, but I have taken a fancy to southern lake and poolside living. I am proud to be (almost) the only team member to bring the north into this southern equation.
My first intro to accounting came in high school. After graduation, a junior accounting position in a mid-sized corporation sealed the deal on my career. With an accounting degree from Long Island University, I embarked on a 10-year path in corporate accounting in New York. Then, my husband and I decided to relocate to the “country,” otherwise known as Atlanta.
Here, I worked as an accounting consultant for 11 years, which is how I met Vickers Design Group. I take charge of all things accounting. Think jack-of-trades when it comes to finance and HR—ready to dive into special projects, suss-out profitability, and keep things compliant. A self-starter, I strive to take on responsibility and lift the burden, so team members can keep doing what they do best.
I bring years of experience to the table every day with a smile. I’m happiest in the summer, staying active outdoors with family and friends. I work hard and enjoy life, with a go-with-the-flow attitude that exudes happy.

“Where did you go to school? Florida? Ugh.” That is usually the reaction I get working in Atlanta closer to Dawg Country than Gator Nation (It hasn’t been a bad run, though…). I admit I am a bit out of my element, having grown up in West Palm Beach. What are these things called seasons, why is the dirt orange, and why does everyone only go to Destin to go to the beach?? I have since figured some of these out.
Being the son of an architect, I guess I only have one person to blame for my professional calling. Or should I say thank? I started my career in Orlando, working on, of course, Disney projects as well as the International Airport. I then migrated North and dabbled in multi-family. The next step was running a branch office for a Florida firm in Atlanta (see the trend here) until finally, the good lord knocked some sense into me, and we started on this great new adventure.
When I’m not on the golf course networking and “developing business,” you can find me on my bike, running, or swimming with my fantastic wife and kids.
