Hello there! I’m a third-year Visual Communication Design student at the University of Cincinnati’s College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning (DAAP), as well as pursuing a minor in Marketing. I’m currently based in Cincinnati, Ohio (a city that keeps my creative brain buzzing and my coffee habit thriving). Creativity has been at the heart of everything I do since I was young, from sketching out ideas to exploring new ways to visually communicate. I’ve always loved finding new ways to make ideas come to life and I’m drawn to design that feels intentional, human, and just a little bit unexpected.

Per Gallup StrengthsFinder, my top themes are Individualization, Achiever, Responsibility, Relator, and Discipline. In short, this basically means I love meaningful collaboration, can’t resist a good checklist (or any list for that matter), and genuinely care about doing things well (and on time).

Outside of design, I’m usually junk journaling (turning literal scraps into art), trying out new coffee shops, running around outdoors, thrifting, spending time with my family and friends or planning my next adventure! This past summer, I checked five national parks off my bucket list and honestly, it was unreal. Whether I’m in the studio or out in the world, I’m always exploring how design fits into everyday life. It’s not just what I do, but it’s how I see the world, and how I hope to leave it a little brighter!
