Internationally Awarded Typographic Expert & Strategic Designer
I am an American designer and Member of the International Society of Typographic Designers (MISTD), recognized globally for typographic excellence. With over 13 years of experience spanning roles as Senior Designer, Editor, and Art Director, I believe that design is most successful when underpinned by a strong concept and a deep understanding of the audience.
My work has reached high-stakes audiences and prestigious platforms, from infographics used on C-SPAN to restaurant branding featured in Conde Nast. Whether I am developing a brand strategy for the Seattle Symphony or 3D printing for cancer research at Fred Hutchison, I bring a unique blend of creative thinking and technical precision to every project.
Core Expertise:
Versatile Design Solutions: I love discussing your needs and what will best support your overall goals. Design is communication and problem-solving, and finding the targeted items we need to succeed is more important than flooding the brand with unnecessary deliverables.
Strategic Branding & Identity: From opening new restaurants, designing immersive menus to full-scale brand strategies, I build identities that tell a story and command authority.
Award-Winning Typography: Expert-level execution focused on Pace and Readability—guiding the reader through your content with intentional visual rhythm.
Elite Editorial Design: Extensive experience ranging from global coffee table magazines to formatting 90,000-word novels for KDP and print. Â
Design as a Source for Social Change. I view design as a powerful tool for impact and bring a dedicated, solution-oriented mindset to every collaboration. I am committed to quality, clear communication, and delivering professional results.
