Expertise
Graphic Design
I have led digital media strategy, designed for international audiences, prototyped designs for websites, and managed print shops. I create purpose-driven designs that take into account the power of all user experiences, mediums, tools, and communities. With these methods, I meet audiences right where they are.
User Experience Research
Service design and UX principles are foundational to my design processes. Developing empathy-based approaches through understanding user journeys and their impact allows me to design with intention and gives my designs long-lasting impact.
Illustration
My personal illustration work is a reflection of my emotions and experiences. Similarly, in my professional work, I draw to evoke powerful, shared human experiences. At its core, I regard illustration to be a great unifier of culture. During my research, it is a pivotal methodology to process everything I learn and create.
