I guess all those first-day-of-school “about me” printouts were preparing me for this moment.
I’ve been designing for about six years now—learning, growing, and figuring things out along the way. I love design… like actually love it. If we were shopping together, you’d probably hear me say, “I could make that,” and then not buy it. Will I actually make it? The chances are pretty slim. But I think it says a lot about how much I enjoy learning new things and picking up new tools—even ones I didn’t think I’d care about before.
Over the past few years, I’ve had the opportunity to work across nonprofit design, merchandising, and content creation. I’ve designed direct mail campaigns, social media graphics, and partnership proposals, as well as merchandise and event materials like signage, booklets, and apparel. I’ve also led creative teams, managed web content, and captured and edited photo and video for campaigns and events.
Most recently, I’ve been working as a Graphic Artist at Convoy of Hope, collaborating with marketing and production teams to create donor campaigns and fundraising materials that reach a wide audience. Alongside that, my freelance work has allowed me to build brands and design with flexibility across different spaces and needs.
I’m drawn to design with purpose, because I believe I was designed with a purpose too.
Creativity is something we all carry—mine just happens to show up in digital and print design.
Thanks for being here. I’d love to make something meaningful with you.
Let’s make something bold.
Bold, silly, professional, or weird … I can usually tell the vibe from how you fill this out.
