open to clients around the world, i provide a variety of design and art services such as creative direction and consulting, murals, visual identity design, book/publication/document design, illustration, and custom lettering/type.
to inquire about a potential project, commission, or collab please include a brief overview about what you’ve got in mind, a rough timeline, and your budget. :)
about [short version]
bachelor of visual communications degree, ~15 years of experience as a graphic designer [but really i’ve been designing things within my life straight out of the womb], ux and ui design certificate holder, growing mixed media artist, daydreamer and deep thinker, direct and honest communicator, obsessive music fan, thrives in nature, and thrifts for sport.
about my creative process [the long version]
never been one to follow a path or do something just because everyone is doing it / because that’s ‘just how it’s always been done.’ the best creatives innovate and lead, not follow, and are comfortable with mistakes and learning from them.
i’m driven by curiosity first; curiosity will never leave me stranded without ideas. ideas are followed by communication, research, and clarity. sometimes i ask [too many] questions and sometimes my ideas go nowhere [this is normal, i think]?
design isn’t just an cool logo or clean visual brand——it’s a tool to communicate, direct, experience, and create some sort of system to this chaotic world. everything is designed in some way and i believe good design will stand out by default without the need for intense marketing strategies. good design goes outside the lines and breaks the rules just enough to make you see without even looking.
strategy / who i am as a the creator
whether i’m making art or working on a design project, i operate with what i call controlled chaos: i’m meticulous yet chaotic, orderly but never afraid to experiment, and autistic and adhd.
i didn’t know about this for the longest time and i hid it and tried to blend in most of the time. turns out hiding this part of me hurt my creativity a little so i don’t do that anymore.
that said, everything i make has depth, a story, and/or purpose. if there’s no why, i don’t want it.
and no, i won’t just make it pop.
