Strategically solving design problems makes my heart skip a beat.

I'm a Senior Graphic Designer and Art Director with years of experience in agency, in-house, and freelance environments. I specialize in branding and packaging and my work extends across print/digital mediums, illustration, and video/photo art direction. My clients range from tourism and non-profits to industry leaders in retail, CPG, and food & beverage.

I grew up on the North Coast of California, and continue to make the unparalleled beauty of the Golden State my home; having recently moved back after a 4 year stint in the Seattle area. Aside from design, my loves include plants, reading, common sense, and the oxford comma.

Currently a Senior Graphic Designer at RR Donnelley, I'm open to freelance for the right projects and people. Drop a line if you think it’s a good fit!
