Hi! I'm a California based graphic artist and illustrator with over 20 years of experience bringing ideas to life through digital and print applications. I love creating thoughtful, detail-driven work that helps brands stand out and connect with people. With a strong foundation in freehand drawing and a deep comfort with digital tools, I’m just as happy collaborating with a team as I am working solo to see a project through.

Work Experience

Graphic Designer, Production Specialist at Pro Stitch USA
December 27, 2024 - November 26, 2025
I handled the print production process from start to finish—working with client artwork, creating original designs, and making sure everything fit each brand’s style. I put together mockups, proofs, and revisions to get designs ready for print on both apparel and paper goods. I ran and maintained screen printing presses, direct-to-film heat presses, direct-to-garment printers, and large-format printers, always keeping an eye on color accuracy and setup. I also worked directly with clients to talk through ideas, timelines, pricing, and project goals to make sure everything came together smoothly.

Education

Bachelor of Fine Arts in Art & Design at Grand Valley State University
