About
I'm a graphic designer and writer currently living in New York, NY
In 2012, I completed a BA with concentrations in Graphic Design and Creative Writing from Savannah College of Art and Design. Shortly after graduation I began working as the Design and Production Assistant at Columbia University Press.
At Columbia University Press, I design book covers, book interiors, write specs for new designs, and am in charge of every single cast-off and art transmittal at the beginning of the production process for our roughly 160 new titles a year.
