My lifelong creative instinct led me to earn a BFA degree in 2015. I’ve spent the last seven years honing my design process in agency contexts, leading digital design efforts in numerous industries and cross-functional teams. I specialize in digital design, design systems, and UX methodologies as well as illustration, brand design, and motion.

My well-rounded blend of fine art knowledge and practical experience continues to inform my work, which strikes a balance between simple, delightful, and rooted in purpose. I approach each problem in the same way: with a curious mind and an empathetic ear. I believe design is most successful when it is rooted in problems to be solved and that the simplest solution is often the most impactful. ✌️
