Biography
Scrappy creative director, designer, and illustrator that loves brand work, known for color-coded spreadsheets, and occasionally contributing copy that doesn’t make writers cry. Agency, corporate, and full-time freelance tested. :)
I've worked on big brand you know like Disney, Verizon, Tumblr, Salesforce, Novo Nordisk, Wells Fargo, Four Seasons, and Waldorf Astoria, but also help new small brands from the ground up like galleries and restaurants.
Up to date on the ever-changing creative landcape, using generative AI as part of the creative workflow since 2023, but still using my brain and drawing things by hand too. I also have six printing presses at my home studio
