Summary

I've got a solid 8 years under my belt in graphic and packaging design experience, Born and raised in Arizona, in 2013 I traded cacti for coffee and moved to Washington. I've had the pleasure of working on a variety of projects, from designing toy packaging to creating standout logos, crafting detailed illustrations, editing photos, and bringing ideas to life with 3D mockups and visuals. When I'm not busy designing, you'll find me exploring the outdoors on my bike, learning to crochet, or chilling with my cat Zeppelin.
