BEHANCE
RESUME
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 deeper understanding of how design influences emotion and behavior. That experience shaped how I see creative work. Not just as something visual, but as a way to tell stories, shift perception, and make people feel something.
Since then, I’ve worked across agencies and freelance projects on branding, packaging, campaigns, and visual identity systems. I’m drawn to concept-driven work rooted in human insight and brought to life through thoughtful craft. I love building worlds around brands and thinking about how ideas live across different touchpoints.
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. A lot of my inspiration comes from everyday conversations and the perspectives that come from connecting with others. I try to live with a glass-half-full mindset, and aim to learn something new every day.
