About
As with many designers, I started off my professional career at a design firm where I honed my honed my skills designing and executing large-scale design systems for consumer packaging. It was intense, but I loved it. Since becoming a parent, however, I've switched my focus towards choice freelance projects for the flexibility that unusual schedules require while still continuing to wear the variety of hats that keep designing interesting. Every new opportunity is a chance to learn. Fear not. We can always figure it out.
