About me

Design takes multiple forms in my life, whether it’s where I live, how I dress, or how I make money. I feel lucky to say that. As a kid I wanted to be a pilot, but then discovered I was color-blind and wasn’t allowed to pursue that career…so I became a designer instead*.

In addition to my strength in design, I thoroughly understand the importance of project management and client expectations. Providing a great product is one thing, but providing a great process is a separator.

*My attempt at a joke, but seriously, I have a red-green color deficiency and I did want to be a pilot.
