Freelance Art Director, Brand Designer, and Photographer based in New York

I'm best known for designing visual identities and campaigns for experiential and hospitality brands.

If you're a fan of photography and surrealism, you should check out my ongoing  self portrait series ↗.

I also like to experiment with type ↗ and I collage ✂ in my spare time.

Exploring the space between design, photography, and identity

I was first drawn to the camera: to capture the world around me as only I saw it.

Then, I learned how to code and started using the web as my creative canvas.

Through web design, I fell in love with typography and the graphic design styles that heavily featured it.

As a designer, I began exploring surrealism and developed an aesthetic that marries photographic imagery with Swiss-style graphics and a hint of uncanny humor.

Today, whether I'm designing brands or shooting portraits or anything in between, I approach all creative work with a focus on resonant storytelling, a holistic blend of digital and analog mediums, and a style that bridges the timeless aesthetics of traditional art movements with the playful practices of modern trends and emerging technologies. I hold a BFA in Photography & Imaging from NYU Tisch School of the Arts and studied creative coding at the Courant Institute and brand identity design at School of Visual Arts. I was in the inaugural class at the NuVu Innovation School.
