One of my favorite things about graphic design is how it can take on any form you desire. I draw inspiration from the tactile elements of design and being able to see how someone's unique hand has a presence in their art. Ultimately, I strive to use design as a means of spreading goodness in meaningful ways, and using that to never stop learning.

I’m from Los Angeles, CA, and a graduate from California College of the Arts with a BFA in Graphic Design. I love print and typography, but in my non-design time, you’ll find me roller skating, playing Stardew Valley, or adding to my collection of dried flowers.
