My Approach
I prioritize collaboration and open communication to make informed design decisions.
I'm a full-stack designer with over 8 years of professional experience building websites and working on brand strategy projects both as an in-house designer and independently. I've successfully worked on websites, graphic design projects, and design strategy for companies in the heavy civil construction, healthcare, and retail industries.
Goal-Oriented
I’m always focused on the big picture. When we establish clear goals, it drives the entire design process forward with focus and clear metrics for success.
Attention to Detail
I believe in quality craftsmanship and strive to imbue everything that I create with high attention to detail without cutting corners or using cookie-cutter templates.
Direct Communication
When you work with me, you’re talking to the person directly producing your work. My process involves honest communication, collaboration, and transparency.
