About
I am a brand designer based in Oregon who’s all about helping people bring their ideas to life in a way that feels real, intentional, and uniquely theirs. I believe great design isn’t just about how something looks– it’s about the story behind it, the strategy that supports it, and the people it connects with.
Education & Skills
I have a Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design and a minor in Business from Boise State University. With a strong foundation in tools like Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, Figma, Miro, and Canva, I’m able to bring both strategy and creativity to every project. I dig deep into who a brand is, what they stand for, and what sets them apart—doing research on competitors, audience, and goals—so I can create a visual identity that not only looks good, but feels intentional and builds trust.
Skills
-
Understanding the "why" behind the design.
I dive into who your brand is at its core—what you stand for, who you’re talking to, and how you want to show up. Through research, competitor analysis, and thoughtful questions, I help define your brand’s voice, mission, and message so the design has a clear direction and purpose -
Design that’s thoughtful, intentional, and true to you.
I build visual systems that are more than just a logo. From color palettes and typography to patterns, icons, and layout rules, I create cohesive brand visuals that help people recognize and connect with your business. The goal? A brand that feels aligned and looks like you. -
Bringing ideas to life across platforms.
With a strong background in Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, Figma, Miro, and Canva, I can bring a design to life with flexibility and consistency. Whether it’s building presentation decks, social graphics, packaging, or digital assets, I make sure every touchpoint stays on-brand and high quality. -
Helping you see—and share—the big picture.
I don’t just design the work—I present it in a way that makes everything click. From pitch decks to brand guidelines, I organize and explain the thinking behind the design so it’s easy to understand and even easier to use. Whether you're showing your brand to a team, a client, or the world, you’ll walk away with materials that clearly communicate who you are and why it matters.
