I'm a designer and illustrator based in Durham, NC with over 15 years of experience bringing ideas to life. My work spans UX, branding, packaging, print, digital, and lettering: basically wherever good design can make a difference. I've had the chance to work in-house, at agencies, as a freelancer, and running my own illustration business, which has taught me how to think both strategically and stay hands-on with my craft. I've collaborated with small retail shops, nonprofits, and tech companies on projects that have earned MARCOM and ADDY awards. What really excites me is using design to tell stories that connect with people and create experiences they remember. I'm always open to new challenges and opportunities!
