I’m a graphic designer by trade, but I find joy in expressing myself through all forms of art. For the past eight years, I’ve called Kansas City home, living in Briarcliff just north of the downtown skyline. As a senior designer at Hallmark, I’m surrounded daily by extraordinary talent, and the creativity of my colleagues constantly fuels my own. My work often begins with curiosity—pieces designed to spark conversation and leave viewers wondering what materials were used and how they came to life. I’m especially drawn to nontraditional mediums, transforming the unexpected into something beautiful. Lately, my inspiration has centered on themes of reuse, sustainability, and care for the world around us, weaving environmental consciousness into my creative process.
