Hi! I’m a multidisciplinary designer, based just outside Washington D.C.! Most recently, I’ve been pushing pixels in the world of sports. While I appreciate a good visual system, I find the most joy in shaking things up when the time calls for it!

IN MY FREE TIME YOU CAN CATCH ME...
OUT: journaling (+), visiting galleries/museums, spending time in nature, or in the gym/at the pool... IN: discovering new music (always accept a song recs - I love getting to know people through their music ), tv time with the dog, honestly probably eating some form of cheese.

2024 Brand Refresh

Work D.C. United

Programs:
Photoshop / Lightroom
Illustrator

Each year the design team goes through the process of researching current design trends, conceptualizing new structures, and presenting developed concepts to the creative department and leadership. After feedback is received, edits are made, and a consensus is reached, the full system is fine-tuned and built in the new “look & feel”. This project expands on my role as lead designer through the creative process and showcases graphics from the D.C. United regular season.

No Pain, No Gain?

BFA Thesis

Programs:
Photoshop / Lightroom
Cinema 4D
Indesign
Premiere Pro

How might we better understand and explore all the facets of chronic pain in an inclusive conversation. This project surrounds the idea of pain and how experiences of pain can range for a person with chronic pain. My intention by bringing such a topic to the table is a sort of call for reflection and observation. My hope is that in walking away from the experience of interacting with my project my audience will better understand the weight of this issue and feel grateful for their state of being.
