I’m a multidisciplinary print designer & visual communicator living in Chicago, IL.

Originally from Cleveland, Ohio, I now call Chicago home, where I draw inspiration from the vibrant energy of the city while always staying true to my Midwestern roots. With over 10 years of experience across industries like publishing, retail, agency work, and freelance, one thing has always remained the same: my unwavering commitment to print design. While the demand for digital design becomes greater, I remain deeply dedicated to the tactile and timeless nature of print. Whether working on developing a new product, illustrating for stationery, or designing a 300-page art book, my goal is to bring thoughtful, engaging design to every project I touch.

When I’m not creating, you can find me trying new restaurants, watching the latest and greatest tv show, and probably plotting when I can take my next trip.

I’m currently working as the Senior Designer at Trope Publishing Co. where I concept and create beautiful coffee table books.
