Portland, Oregon

I am a print and web designer with a love for typography, color and texture, elements that span both realms. While I enjoy “making things pretty,” I also understand the need for practicality and function. Without these, design is mere decoration.

Since businesses are unique entities, I strive to give them their own distinctive branding with a flexible and adaptive approach to design. I thrive in a collaborative environment, growing from the influence of my colleagues.
