When I was 18, I packed up my life in San Francisco and moved to Scotland to study graphic design. Up to that point, I only had experience in fine arts, and I couldn’t name a single graphic designer if my life depended on it. Now, I am passionate about telling stories through graphics, the visual narrative that transcends language. I have a particular love of illustration, book design, and branding. 

Outside of art & design, I spend my days walking around my neighborhood in pursuit of an ice-cold coffee and a good thrift store (bonus points if it has second-hand books). My favorite time of year is when baseball & football season overlap. I was cheering for the SF Giants and 49ers before I could say my own name. During summer, I am guaranteed to be alone, across some ocean or sea. I love to travel & do volunteer work wherever I go. Despite being an introvert, I find the most joy in meeting people from all over the world.
