Welcome! I am a Graphic Designer based in Vancouver. I graduated from the Alberta University of the Arts (formerly ACAD) in 2020. I've been designing for five years, and am interested in digital design, print work, and have a preference for typography-based design, with an occasional venture into illustration.

Likes: Typography, cats, fiction, sewing, and video games.

Dislikes: First paragraph indents, tomatoes and being cold.

Skills: I am proficient in the Adobe creative suite, with Adobe InDesign as my weapon of choice. I have knowledge in typography, branding, information design, product design, advertising, motion graphics, user experience design, and graphic design. I also have basic coding knowledge (HTML5 and CSS3) and am familiar with the Wordpress interface.

Why I create: Everywhere I go I see good design, for there is so much of it, and some bad design as well. The latter, surprisingly, tends to motivate me more than the former. Every time I see a bad design, I also see a multitude of ways to improve it, to make it into something beautiful and compelling. Design is everywhere, and I can’t help imagining a society in which everything has been created to have function, purpose, and beauty in strange and exciting ways, a society in which people can be inspired as I am every day by seeing the wonderful things others have created and by wondering how they themselves can be the maker of something that gives them a sense of pride and accomplishment. One of my favourite things about design is all of the possible ways a project can go. To be able to create something from the words “what if?” is, to me, both an adventure and a gift.
