I started as a painter.

A bad one. I was not one of those kids born with a natural skillset, but I still loved making things. And after many MANY years, and countless “How to Draw” books, I found a rhythm. I still paint in my free time, but mostly my days are filled with design.

I’m currently a Senior Brand Designer with ~7 years of experience. My background is a blend of digital design and brand expression, with half of that spent at well-known agencies and the other half on in-house creative teams.

My favorite projects tend to be the ones with a little bit of a challenge - when you’re trying to do something differently, and push what might be considered “normal” in the industry. I believe the best brands are the ones that unapologetically stand out, and create a voice recognizable to them and them alone. Engagement usually derives from entertainment.

I’m originally from [upstate] New York. I come from a family of 5, and I have 2 nephews who do in fact consider me to be the “cool aunt”.

I aim to create work that proves that to be true.
