I'm a Brand Designer and Photographer with an unconventional background—I started my career as an elementary music teacher.
Teaching taught me how to break down complex concepts into intuitive, accessible experiences. It made me a careful listener and a patient problem-solver, foundations that now guide my work as a designer.
Today, I design cohesive brand systems and visual experiences for travel, lifestyle, and service-based businesses. I'm especially drawn to projects where strategy and creativity intersect, and where thoughtful design can shape how a brand is felt as much as how it looks.
When I'm not designing, you'll find me either exploring new places, camera in hand, with my husband Keith and our dog, Jake, or catching up on the latest episode of one of my favorite shows.
Learn MoreDesign with Intention
I believe the most powerful brands aren't the loudest; they're the most intentional. I look for the quiet details that make your business human and turn them into a visual language that speaks for itself.
A beautiful website or polished logo is only half the battle. I build systems based on architecture, not just aesthetics. Whether it's an accessibility-tested color palette or a custom-coded shopify backend, I ensure your brand is built on a foundation that can scale.
My process is built on high-level collaboration. I don't just deliver a file and disappear; I partner with you to map out your digital ecosystem. We focus on structural clarity and strategic flow first, ensuring that when we get to the visual "polish", it's rooted in purpose.
