I'm an artist, designer, writer, and dweller of obscure corners of the internet.
I've been sketching my ideas, designing websites, and crafting fashion looks since 3rd grade. While my style has changed a lot, I never grew out my passion for inclusivity, digital culture and stylish access to information.
I have a B.A. in Journalism and Media, and I'm based in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
Here's a glimpse of a site I made in elementary school.
Thank God I eventually learned about color theory and readability...
At UNC Chapel Hill's Hussman School of Journalism and Media, I combined my major of Advertising & PR with my minor in Studio Arts to become an art director. I pride myself in my ability to bring concepts to life.
From planning advertising campaigns to designing digital content, I bring a holistic approach to the creation process. Millennials and Gen Z are gaining consumer power and unique attitudes towards marketing.
I know how to tap into my generation's infatuation with authentic storytelling, brand loyalty, product quality, and corporate responsibility.
