About
Hello! I am a graphic designer and artist based in Bellingham, Washington in the Pacific Northwest, near the Canadian border. With a diverse background in both design and fine arts, I enjoy exploring different styles and mediums. I’m passionate about helping non-profit organizations build their brand identities and engaging them through visual storytelling. In my free time, I paint landscapes and create abstract art inspired by the various places I’ve traveled across the western United States. I always strive to find new ways to express my creativity, whether through design or art. I have created 3 paintings as samples of children’s illustrations.
