I help companies create thoughtful and empathetic products and experiences.

By leveraging the experience I've acquired over ten years and two careers, I consider when, where, and how the end-user will be using everything I design. Whether that is considering the construction workers when drawing structural details for engineering companies or designing an app to create wine at home.

I spent the first ten years of my career in engineering as a draftsman, creating structural details and construction plans.

In 2017, I decided to formally pursue a career in design, earning my degree from Middlesex Community College. I quickly landed a role at Gensler as a Brand Designer, where I designed signage & wayfinding systems.

In 2021, I joined the team at Brewsy as their Lead Graphic Designer. I developed the brand's visual language and worked with the CEOs to establish a project management system, informing design decisions from social ads to the packaging design for their upcoming flagship product.

I'm currently looking for a role that will take my design career to the next level. One where I can learn from and work with a team and apply my unique background to a host of new opportunities and exciting projects that help create thoughtful experiences for users.
