I'm a multidisciplinary designer hailing from New England! I love telling brand stories through thoughtful, strategic design and collaborating with other creatives to make magic happen. Over the past 7 years, I’ve learned how to leverage design to not only attract attention but also create genuine connections with audiences. My approach is simple: design with intention, ensuring that every project feels true to your brand and resonates with your customers. Whether it's packaging design or digital assets, I’m passionate about bringing your vision to life. When I’m not designing, you’ll find me tending to my plants, thrifting, or sipping a sugar-free Strawberry Apricot Red Bull (the official drink of Lamb & Dagger).

    uniE621 SOUVENIR DESIGN: Vert Pack x Ohio Classic
    For the Ohio Classic, I had the opportunity to design limited-edition souvenir packaging for Vert Pack, celebrating Ohio's rich history and pride. Inspired by mid-century design elements, the packaging captures the state's nostalgic charm while appealing to modern sensibilities. The design features a nod to Ohio’s iconic landmarks, blending bold typography with clean, geometric shapes for a timeless, eye-catching look. To make the packaging even more special, I utilized variable print processes to individually number each box—highlighting the limited edition nature of the product. Only 270 were printed, adding exclusivity and value to the piece, making it a memorable collectible for attendees. This thoughtful, detail-driven design served as both a functional package and a piece of Ohio pride that attendees could take home with them. Key Features: -Mid-century inspired design rooted in Ohio’s history -Variable print processes for numbered, limited-edition packaging -Bold, geometric design with a nostalgic feel -Focus on exclusivity and high-end design quality -Crafted with the Ohio pride and event branding in mind PackagingDesign SouvenirPackaging MidCenturyDesign OhioClassic LimitedEdition BrandActivation EventPackaging NostalgicDesign DesignForCollectibles PrintDesign GeometricDesign PackagingArt OhioPride GraphicDesign CreativePackaging CustomPackaging

    uniE621 PACKAGING DESIGN: HHF x Ridgeline Farms x Bert Kreischer
    When Huckleberry Hill Farms and Ridgeline Farms pitched the idea of a unique cannabis strain inspired by Bert Kreischer’s personality, I had the pleasure of designing the packaging for “The Machine”—a cannabis strain that blends two of Bert’s favorite strains, capturing his larger-than-life energy and humor. The packaging concept aligns perfectly with Bert's signature comedic style, drawing on bold, vibrant colors and playful, attention-grabbing typography.
