About Me
I’m an artist, designer, and illustrator based in Chicago, IL. I received my BFA in Film and Video from UW-Milwaukee. My passion for the arts has translated into successful exhibitions of work at the Denver Art Museum, Museum of Contemporary Art Denver, and RedLine Gallery. I’ve also been involved with running and organizing spaces in the Milwaukee and Denver DIY scenes. In my spare time, I collect and repair vintage Audio and Video equipment.

GRAPHIC DESIGN
Branding
I will carefully create or source imagery and typography the suits your purpose. Big or small, I will give every project attention, down to the smallest detail.
Collaboration
I may be the artist, but it’s your product! I welcome your input throughout the design process. My goal is to ensure that the designs best reflect your mission.
Print
Formatting, color proofing, margins… Putting work into print might seem simple, but it can quickly go awry. With my help, you will avoid any nasty surprises from the printing press.
Content Creation
Getting your product off the ground is a good start, but getting it into the hands of customers can be difficult. I can generate content optimized for social media to keep your followers engaged and attract new ones.
