As an independent designer, I bring beauty and clarity to the world. I believe that compelling visual identities, stories, and experiences have the power to resonate deeply with people while driving business success. My expertise lies in developing cohesive visual identities for emerging brands, revitalizing established ones, and designing thoughtful packaging systems. As a director, I lead creative strategy to expand a brand’s visual language across all marketing platforms.

My process centers on creating harmonious solutions through strategic problem-solving, intention, and empathy. With a focus on the consumer goods sector, I’ve been instrumental in launching and growing numerous product brands. Additionally, I collaborate with arts and civic organizations on transformative revitalization projects. I excel at understanding client challenges, synthesizing complexity, and crafting designs that balance aesthetics with functionality.

A trusted collaborator, I listen, advise, and deliver meaningful outcomes that build distinct brands. With a background in graphic design, fine art, and creative writing, my work merges artistic expression with real-world impact.
