About

Hello! I am a graphic designer with ten years experience doing what I love! Working with corporate, start-up, international and non-profit clients, my experience stretches across print, web, mobile and environmental design.

My clients call me talented, diligent, collaborative with a can-do attitude. It is a thrill to work in this rapidly advancing creative field, helping organizations put their best foot forward – towards their goals, vision and mission. When it comes down to it, I really love graphic design!
