Goofing and snapping photos in London where my name is everywhere!
Here's my face! This photo was taken at artist Alex Valentina's solo exhibition in Ibiza, Spain. I'm a huge fan of his dreamy photography and visual wonderlands.
Fall in the Hudson Valley with my bestie, Nick!
My curiosity is massive. The world constantly inspires and challenges me to learn, move and grow. I'm a well-rounded and highly skilled graphic designer with 20 years of industry expertise and counting. Clear, friendly communication is highly valuable and something I pride myself in with everything I do in this life. I'm an avid writer and regularly pen articles, personal essays, research-based blog posts, poetry, and support clients with brand manifestos and copywriting. I've been fully freelance for the last 3 years, which has allowed me to take on some incredible projects and pursue lots of cool learning opportunities and travel. I absolutely adore animals and enjoy balancing my design endeavors with pet sitting in the Hudson Valley and the Catskills, New York. I'm active on Rover, where I earned the prestigious 'Star Sitter' status, a program that highlights responsive sitters who deliver highly rated care. You can read my pet care clients' reviews and see cute dogs and cats here!
