About
I’m a graphic designer and brand designer with a BFA in Graphic Design from San Diego State University. I blend creative storytelling with practical design to deliver branding, packaging, UI/UX, and marketing campaigns for startups and Fortune-500 teams alike. I’ve led major branding initiatives, including a company rebrand and the identity overhaul of an annual investor conference. I thrive in fast-paced environments, translate briefs into actionable plans, and collaborate across teams to drive growth through thoughtful, impactful design.
In my freelance and full-time roles, I’ve helped translate client visions into visually compelling assets—logos, apps, websites, product mockups, and polished pitch decks—while refining workflows and mentoring peers in new tools and processes.
