Graphic Designer & Creative Director
I’m a Wisconsin-based graphic designer and creative director with a lifelong love for visual storytelling. My creative curiosity started early, burning through disposable cameras as a kid and documenting everything from my dog to cool rocks, then saving babysitting money in 8th grade for my first digital camera. At the same time, I was experimenting with design in Microsoft Paint, filling sketchbooks with robot and monster doodles, and building PowerPoint presentations purely for fun. The pinnacle moment was a fully designed deck my cousins and I created to argue why we should be allowed to drive ourselves to our family’s cabin at 16, equal parts creative, strategic, and formative.
Those early experiences shaped how I work today, blending a photographer’s eye for light, texture, and emotion with a designer’s instinct for structure, clarity, and brand cohesion. Over the years, that evolution has led me into creative leadership, where I guide brand strategy, provide thoughtful oversight, and mentor teams of creative professionals. I lead with clarity and collaboration, helping teams do their best work while keeping creative aligned with business goals.
When I’m not designing, I reset through reformer pilates and a wellness-focused lifestyle that values balance and mindful movement. At my core, I am a tea connoisseur, sushi-obsessed, cat-loving, tattoo-covered creative who finds joy in making art that connects people and ideas in meaningful ways.
