Bio

I’m a graphic designer from Chicago IL inspired by the glowing lights of the working class city. I am currently studying design & visual communication at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee. Art has been a passion of mine since I was really young, and my career in design began during junior year of high school. I am an avid fan of indie rock which has fueled my inspiration for smaller brands and companies.

My creative skills include solving problems through storytelling and art direction. A few of the brands I’ve collaborated with in the past include: Sprint and KitchenAid. I have developed social media content and campaign identities. When I’m not putting the finishing touches on a piece, I can usually be found sipping coffee or riding my bike. If you think we could work well together, drop me a line. I look forward to working with you.
