More about me

I'm a passionate art supervisor, art director and graphic designer who is invested in making effective and strategic work. My skills are broad and my interests are many but I believe all visual problems follow the same path to solution. Without research and context, a beautiful looking project can be empty of any thoughtful content and business value and I’m in constant pursuit of infusing all work with the end user in mind.

I live and breathe in the fresh air in upstate NY. I enjoy listening to records, having spirited discussions about design with my architect husband, building forts with my two kids, and being a good sport while losing at board games

In addition to design work, I’m inspired by using my hands in quilting, which has become a really fun medium to play in pure use of line, shape, form, texture and balance.

My portfolio, while varied, constantly reveals my interest in restraint and thoughtful subtlety. Hope you enjoy my work
