A bold designer, a nature lover, a board game enthusiast
I'm a graphic designer focused on building unique and complete brands for passionate people with bold ideas. My strength is in navigating the fine balance between clean and considered design in order to craft conceptually-driven and timeless identities.
When I’m not at my desk designing, I’m probably out hiking a trail or exploring new spots from my Philadelphia Garden Capital Passport — Morris Arboretum and Longwood Gardens have definitely become favorites. You’ll also find me getting dragged around the neighborhood by my Samoyed, Saratoga, who got this idea that he is in charge of our walks. On days when the weather keeps me inside, I’m usually playing a board game or working on a puzzle. And when I’m feeling competitive, I’m out playing with my local pickleball league (we aren't very good…).
As a designer, I'm always on the lookout for new music to fuel my creative sessions. Great music keeps me energized and adds an extra layer of enjoyment to my work.
Here are a couple of my current favorites that are inspiring me to think outside the box and push my limits as a designer. Check them out and let me know what you think or feel free to share your own recommendations with me through any socials!
