I’m a senior graphic designer who believes thoughtful design begins with better questions. Before opening InDesign or Illustrator, I’m thinking about the audience, the context, the real goal behind the project, and the hurdles we’ll need to overcome along the way. What problem are we actually solving? How will someone use this? What would make it clearer, easier, or more meaningful? How can we elevate the experience—or improve the process behind it? My favorite projects are the ones that require more than aesthetics—long-form publications, complex stories, and cleverly subtle visual systems that help people navigate information without friction. Art can be beautiful without function, but design should function before it’s beautiful. Over the years, I’ve worked across corporate, agency, nonprofit, and higher-education environments, collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver thoughtful, practical design under real-world deadlines. I’m especially energized by work that: • Balances creativity with strategy • Respects audiences and context • Improves experiences in small but meaningful ways • Values curiosity over ego Design doesn’t always need a deep debate, but it does benefit from asking the right questions at the right time. Always happy to connect with people and teams who care about creativity, clarity, and collaboration.
