Designer based in Chicago with an eye for detail and a passion for simplicity.
I thrive on bringing ideas to life through art and design, focusing on creating products that inspire joy, connection, and creativity. Whether illustrating unique patterns or developing innovative concepts, I approach every project with enthusiasm and a commitment to excellence, crafting designs that meet market trends and build lasting emotional connections with customers.
When I'm not working, you can find me planning my next hike, exploring a new bakery, listening to a new audiobook, or tuning into my favorite podcast.

I have a Bachelor of Science in Retailing & Consumer Behavior and a certificate in Graphic Design from the University of Wisconsin – Madison, where I learned the fundamentals of visual communication, branding, and marketing. I decided to integrate these two disciplines because I recognized the importance of creating design concepts and narratives that are informed by trends and consumer psychology.

In my current role, I create innovative product concepts, illustrate unique designs, develop production-ready files, and collaborate with directors and teams to bring high-quality products to life. I have worked on projects for both Paper Source and Barnes & Noble brands, showcasing my versatility and adaptability. My work includes cohesive design solutions aligned with brand identity, brainstorming new product ideas, and refining details to ensure functionality and aesthetic appeal. I am driven by opportunities to express my artistic vision and create products that delight and inspire customers.
Previously, as a Junior Production Artist for Paper Source and Barnes & Noble, I prepared print-ready files, designed product packaging, and worked closely with manufacturers to ensure smooth production. This role built my expertise in managing technical design aspects while maintaining creative integrity.
I also gained experience at the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s School of Pharmacy and College of Letters & Science, where I honed skills in branding, layout design, and visual storytelling. During my internship with Her Campus Media, I contributed to digital content and design projects.
