About
Freelance design strategist, designer, and illustrator with a desire to seek out new challenges, an innate ability to distill and communicate complex ideas into simple, easy-to-execute strategies and designs, and fastidious attention to detail.
In other words, I make complex design problems easy to solve.
My years of experience working in varied design disciplines in both the US and Europe also gives me a unique lens through which to see the issues and challenges facing today's designers. -
