Where it all started



Hi, I'm Danielle. 
A Chicago-based designer & art director originally from Cleveland, Ohio — driven by creativity, empathy, and a love for building brands that connect with people on a human level.


I earned my degree in Communication Design and Art Therapy from Miami University, where I developed a deep understanding of how design influences emotion and behavior. Since then, I’ve worked across agencies and businesses on projects spanning branding, packaging, campaigns and visual identity systems — always focused on crafting thoughtful, strategic, and human-centered design solutions.

I thrive in collaborative, fast-paced environments and love creating work that not only looks beautiful but tells a story and makes people feel something. I’m especially passionate about branding, typography, packaging, and art direction — and I’m always looking for new opportunities to grow, collaborate, and bring ideas to life.

Outside of design, I love meeting new people, exploring new places, and spending as much time outdoors as possible — whether that’s hiking, traveling, or just touching grass. I try to approach life with a glass-half-full mentality, finding the good in challenges and learning from every experience.
