Simple in style. Simply what you’ve been looking for.

​

I’m a multidisciplinary graphic designer from Southern California. I specialize in branding, motion, and user interface design. I’m well accustomed to creative research and experimentation.

 

I channel a diverse interest in various forms of expression—illustration, makeup, and dance.

 

I can be your independent creative, or supporting collaborator. I can manage, polish, and support projects at any stage of its development.
