About

Creating with intention

I'm a designer and artist based in DeKalb, Illinois. My work spans branding, illustration, and handmade objects — all united by a love for thoughtful craft and honest materials.

Every project begins with listening. I believe the best work emerges from genuine collaboration and a deep understanding of what we're trying to achieve together.
