Full-Time Roles

Creative visual designer with focus/experience in digital media and experiential platforms.

As a visual designer, I use digital media to both express and create spaces to be expressed, while embracing the challenges of working with(in) different mediums and appreciating the different perspectives they add to my creative processes. I have used my skills and platform to listen to, engage with, and record individuals to address inequity, design and curate experiences, celebrate and uplift local culture and history, memorialize loss, and envision better, stronger, resilient communities. When I'm not at my desk editing and pursuing creative projects, or on the road filming and flying drones, I enjoy playing and watching soccer. Thank you for your consideration, and I look forward to collaborating on projects with you.
