I’m a freelance designer and art director, most recently at Wieden + Kennedy PDX as a Design Lead. With over 10 years of experience working for in-house teams, agencies and startups, the throughline is I’m typographically and visually driven. Work where culture and progressive, intelligent thinking merge is where I want to be.
In an alternate-yet-parallel universe I am an artist and educator. After teaching in the CCA MFA Design program, I’m looking to teach again soon! 🤔. From November 2023—April 2024 I was a dedicated BFA GD thesis mentor at Pacific Northwest College of Art. Prior to that, in Spring 2023, I gave lectures/workshops at Otis College of Art & Design and University of San Francisco.
🌐️ Clients I’ve worked for recently include:
POSTMATES, on their #BetterThanSanta campaign with Victoria Monét
AERIAL, on an upcoming rebrand
YUNG STUDIO, on a rebrand where I contributed initial brand direction
and GOOGLE

Thanks for reading, and I hope your day is well 🌞️🌞️.
