Since 2005, I have been leading Right Angle Studio, a Chicago-based design firm. With nearly two decades of experience, I have honed my skills across a wide range of projects, from publications to websites and specialized materials such as whitepapers and ebooks. My educational background in both marketing and design, combined with extensive industry experience, enables me to create impactful designs that resonate with target audiences. At Right Angle Studio, we prioritize quality and efficiency. While I am the sole designer, I do have a business partner who oversees the day-to-day operations, allowing me to focus entirely on delivering top-notch design work. This structure ensures I avoid the typical capacity issues faced by freelancers while maintaining a high level of responsiveness. My portfolio showcases my ability to tailor designs to meet the specific branding and needs of each client, no matter the sector. I am eager to bring my expertise to your next project and demonstrate how strategic design can effectively engage and influence your audience.
