I’m an independent designer and artist living and working in Kansas City.
I work with purpose-driven organizations and individuals to help clarify and express their identities through thoughtful, forward-thinking design.
Who I Am
I’ve been designing brand identities for just under a decade. Over the years, and through the molding and guidance of great mentors, I’ve become passionate about the intersection of beautiful design and strategic execution.

Thorough design and excellent communication are the pillars of my work. I aim for my partners and clients to not only move forward with a beautiful brand, but one that they can execute on with success.
How I Work
Remarkable organizations deeply understand their purpose—this is the place they make decisions from, both internally and externally, and this purpose is the invisible map that guides them as they grow and change.

Beginning with the first meeting, this purpose is the focus of the conversation. At times, clients have already unearthed this guiding direction when they come to me, and at times I help clients discover and clarify that direction. Regardless of the end deliverables, this process of intently listening and learning is what shapes the remaining steps of the design process, from exploration to handoff.
