about

I’ve been working in graphic, print, digital and motion design since 2009. In that time I’ve animated dozens of videos and designed full graphics packages for documentaries, keynote presentations, web series, and event marketing. I've applied my skills to experiential and interactive design for both trade shows and educational installations.

What I enjoy most is designing graphic systems and establishing guidelines that ensure fidelity to a brand, particularly in ways that help other artists in a team align to a style and execute efficiently.

My role is to work closely with creative directors and clients to help interpret the vision for their product/campaign, then produce the assets, style, and consistent visual language necessary for a concept to materialize. I truly love building color palettes, figuring mathematical tables for typographic scales and layout grids, spending hours researching typefaces, and leading teams of talented artists in a unified design effort.

From 2018 to 2020 I was the Dialogue Lead for the San Francisco chapter of TypeThursday ».
