Things that bring her joy are the quiet things in life. Spending quality time with friends and family, playing in the backyard with her kiddos, plus the (mom) luxuries such as nail appointments and quiet dental cleanings. She is baby/toddler obsessed and the first face you will see in the office, so be prepared for her to acknowledge them before you! She will remember their little faces and loves to see how they grow through the years.

  • Audrey

    BRAND MANAGER

    After graduation from the University of Notre Dame with a BFA in design in 2009, Audrey Negro worked in corporate design consulting in Chicago and Seattle. Corporate burnout led her to make a move to Bellingham, WA, where she currently focuses on brand design and strategy on a freelance basis as the founder of Treble Creative. Her branding work for clients across the country has been based on a purely collaborative mission and crosses industry demarcations. She also teaches at Western Washington University as an adjunct professor in the design department, where she insists on instilling the desire to design for the greater good and for the enhancement of community and culture.

    Working on brand strategy for Bellingham Pediatric Dentistry has fulfilled a quest to work on local projects that improve health and education of little ones. Working with her husband, Dr. Sawyer, is a dream! When she’s not geeking out on music or design, her family keeps her busy as an outdoor warrior.
