All designs have a story, a human-centered purpose. I’m here to make that story known to all and facilitate

positive change.

A little about me

I graduated from the Western Washington University with a Bachelor of Arts in Design and a minor in Geography. I had the privilege of studying within areas of my university that are both well-known and respected; Huxley College of the Environment for pioneering some of the top environmental programs in the country and the Design Department for offering one of the most competitive programs in the region.

Outside of my education, I have a background in performance art, education, and travel. These experiences paired with my time at Western have helped me formulate well-rounded skills in critical thinking, collaboration, and communication; both visual and written. The design program challenged me to develop technical skills that have allowed me to express complex ideas through multiple visual mediums while creating aesthetically beautiful work. My time at Huxley sharpened my knowledge of global patterns along with my research and writing skills, giving me the tools to develop and defend ideas from start to finish. My program studies at Western have combined into an understanding of the world we live in and awareness of the creative powers that can cause lasting change.

I find fulfillment in UX, experiential design, marketing, storytelling, creative direction, publication design, and photography. I’ve explored these directions in my coursework and look forward to finding bridges between these areas as I enter the professional world.
