The funny thing is, I studied design in college because I knew my mom would freak out if I told her I was a “Fine Arts” major.

    But of course, my journey as a designer began much earlier, in high school - where I designed websites for local bands in order to get into gigs for free. What started as a hobby quickly grew into an obsession, and my love for all things design related rapidly grew as I continued my studies.

    As a graduate from the University of California - Davis, I have a strong foundation of design theory, mixed with my natural artistic skills and adventurous attitude. I believe that great design comes from an understanding of what’s been done, what works, and what needs to be thrown into the mix to keep it all relevant and fresh.

    I try to find inspiration in the unexpected, whether it’s a great song, a perfect Americano, or a crazy graffiti mural on the corner of 2nd and Pike. When I’m not designing, I enjoy running, baking, and illustrating. I am mildly obsessed with cupcakes and can often be seen scoping out the latest foodie blogs. Currently I live in the great city of Seattle, WA with my crazy boyfriend Chase.
