I’m an award-winning branding and packaging designer with over a decade of experience who believes creative work should turn heads and make sense. I specialize in bringing playful ideas to life—whether that’s a snack brand with attitude, merch with personality, or a tabletop game that stands out on the shelf. My work blends strategic thinking with unexpected, just-weird-enough design choices that help products feel as good as they look. What I bring to the table: • Eye-catching packaging for food, merch, and games • Brand identity systems with personality and purpose • Illustration that adds flavor and fun to your product • Production know-how and hands-on creative direction I’ve led design for consumer packaged goods, hospitality brands, and Kickstarter-backed games. I love working closely with founders and creative teams to make products that stand out for all the right reasons. Let's make cool things together!

I am a graphic designer with experience in print and digital platforms. I really enjoy text heavy projects such as magazines, books, brochure or flyers, but also find creativity in logo design. Since starting my own small business in January 2021 I have found that I enjoy a challenge and am willing to be pushed out of my comfort zone to give clients exactly what they want.

I help brands and marketing teams create polished digital design assets that feel intentional, on-brand, and ready to use across campaigns! My work is focused on digital graphic design, including email graphics, social and ad creative, landing page visuals, pitch decks, web graphics, brand assets, and Figma mockups. I’m also comfortable with UX/UI projects when the scope is focused on Figma design, wireframes, high-fidelity mockups, or visual layout. Tools I use most: Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, and Canva when needed. I’m open to one-off projects, but I’m especially a good fit for teams looking for reliable ongoing design support!
