GRAPHIC DESIGNER
WHO I AM
A person on a journey that started in 2023, when I left my job of 5 years in marketing to explore the world and seek out my purpose. I spent 4 mind-expanding months backpacking Europe and Oceania. What I came back with was a lot more questions and a certainty that leaning into my creative side would bring me more joy. Upon returning, I immediately enrolled in a design program at UCLA extension. Since completing the program, I've gotten to do some really cool work in the experiential space, creating for large-scale experiential activations. I've gotten to create so many cool and unique physical design pieces, I've gotten to work with some really cool IPS, I've gotten to design for some awesome brands, but most notably, I've gotten to work with some really talented people. People I've learned a lot from. People who have given me the space to grow. I have found a place for myself and I am determined to fill it with people and things that inspire me to not only create better, but to be better.
