I am an experience-focused graphic designer based in Chicago.1 Because connection is so important to me, I am always looking for ways to work with every part of my community, especially in frequently underserved markets. Design should improve the ways in which we interact with the world, and that is exactly what I try to do in every project. I love finding unique and creative methods to convey stories and feelings, and ultimately, design for people.2
