Creative design professional with a strong background in visual design, industrial design, design research, UX, branding and environmental design. I excel in fast-paced, collaborative environments with a variety of diverse projects and value process and documentation. Although my skill set is vast, my focus and aesthetic often has a distinct sense of play, function, story-telling and user-driven research to design experiences for the betterment of consumers through reliance on multidisciplinary collaboration and problem framing.
In order to achieve this holistic design perspective, I’ve studied many areas of design such as human-centered research, ethnography, 3D Digital Production, illustration, animation, poster design, branding, concept art, digital sketching, photography, packaging, storyboarding, modeling and hands-on prototyping. I specialize in Adobe Creative Suite programs.
As a graduate from the University of Notre Dame with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in both Industrial and Visual Communication Design, much of my education focused on design for social good and has influenced my interest in designing for the underserved.
During my 3.5 years as a concept artist and graphic designer at Walt Disney Imagineering, I got to wear a lot of hats and design alongside many disciplines to create high-end experiences for Walt Disney World, such as in park experiences, park signage, park way-finding and blue sky exploration.

Outside of design, I love boxing, traveling, training my rescue puppy, Wrigley, D&D, board games (some of my favorites are Dominion, Catan and Power Grid), thrift and antique shopping, trying to keep my pepper plant alive, painting old furniture, journaling and keeping up with my dog’s instagram.
