I’m a graphic designer with a passion for building thoughtful, human-centered visual experiences across brand, print, and digital platforms. I recently graduated from Purdue University with a BFA in Visual Communication Design, along with minors in Art History and Creative Writing. My work blends strategy, creativity, and attention to detail to create designs that feel intentional, approachable, and meaningful. Through roles in brand development, event design, and social media, I’ve gained hands-on experience designing for real audiences in fast-moving, collaborative environments. I enjoy working across disciplines to translate ideas, stories, and values into visuals that connect. Currently, I work as a Graphic Design Contractor for Bound Beauty Studio, where I help shape brand identity, create event and workshop materials, and design content across digital and print touchpoints. My background also includes leading design efforts for Purdue Hackers, supporting creative communities through AIGA Purdue, and contributing to brand refresh projects as a design intern. I’m especially drawn to projects rooted in community, culture, wellness, and storytelling. Always open to connecting, collaborating, and learning from other creatives. In my free time, I am a skilled traditional artist and digital illustrator. My background in Fine Arts expands my creativity during design work, and my education in Visual Communication Design elevates the quality of elements and principles in my traditional pieces.
