Senior Brand & Graphic Designer with 9+ years of experience & a global perspective across startups, scale-ups, and corporates — designing by hand and on screen, for brands that want to feel human.
Trained in Boston and Los Angeles, it was London that launched my career; from cultural institutions and global startups to independent studios. A chapter in Austin followed, where I continued my practice while growing my family. Now, I'm back where it all began, bringing with me a richer perspective and the same considered craft.

Formally educated at Boston University with my BFA in Graphic Design and MSc in Media Ventures, I'm captivated by design due to its diverse and global presence from the fine arts to tech to the film & music industry.

Outside of work, I balance the quiet, therapeutic process of wheel-throwing and illustrating with the decidedly less quiet reality of family life. πΊπ¨π€Έπ»βοΈ
