Growing up just a short train ride to New York City, I was exposed to a world of design, art, and culture. I loved all of it…but I didn’t know where I fit in. Things clicked in the Communications Design program at Syracuse University. For me, graphic design is the intersection of creativity and practicality. I like to solve communication challenges visually—even better if it’s for mission-driven businesses and organizations.

After a stint at a boutique design agency in Chicago, I landed a position in the exhibitions department at the Children’s Museum of Manhattan. I picked up so much about designing for a physical space (and I got to paint murals and install vinyl lettering!). Life led me to Elements in New Haven, Connecticut where I cut my teeth learning every aspect of the design process from ideation and concepting to print management and delivery. That gave me the confidence to freelance when I moved back to Chicago and then onto Ann Arbor, Michigan.

After starting at Nutshell as a Marketing Designer, my position grew to Creative Director, overseeing the art direction and design of all visual content and creating a story and experience that reflected Nutshell’s brand.

Early in 2023, I accepted a fully remote position at Nomad Health, overseeing a team of two copywriters and one designer. As Art Director, I helped bring Nomad’s new brand to life across multiple channels, both internally and externally. I worked cross-functionally to deliver cohesive solutions that are consistently branded, and beatutiful.
