When I did my 3rd grade career day project on becoming a cartoon artist, it seemed like the best possible option for a career that would make adulthood bearable: I’d get to draw!
And so I began a rigorous training regimen—marker tips glided across paper, 10,000 pixels were carefully plotted in MSPaint, a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from a respectable institution was acquired—to finally enter the working world as a graphic designer. Not a cartoonist exactly, but 3rd grade me would approve, I’d like to think.
I’ve spent the better portion of the past 17 years growing and honing my design and collaboration skills, seeking to create designs that have meaning, purpose, and maybe even inspire some ✨delight✨ along the way. Experienced at graphic design and art direction, I have been increasingly working on my illustration skills (why are hands so hard to draw?) and rekindling my love of creating motion graphics.
Interested in working together? I’d love to hear from you! Drop me a note via the contact page, or on the social media platform of your choice—as long as it’s LinkedIn or Instagram.
