Profile
Working alongside a range of clients, from start-ups to established companies, my aim is to create and evolve brands holistically—for the long term—using strategic design.
My bread and butter is branding, but I like to do a little bit of everything: strategy, illustration, art direction, and more. I would love to be involved in a naming project, especially. The through-line, of course, is working to develop a compelling narrative and a strategic framework; a foundation for a solid identity.
I strive to work with folks that want to be impactful; to be positive; to create meaningful things.
