My Inspiration
​Hello there! I'm a designer from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In my work, I often
often turn to the past to imagine the future. Using historical inspirations to make timeless designs. I strived to find creative solutions by finding unique connections. It is also nice to make someone smile.
​
Themes that appear in my work include women's advancement, mental health, LQBTQ+ rights, the importance of art & design education, environmental preservation, accessibility, and scientific endeavors.

How did I get here?
Like many, I have always been a little artsy. Then when high school hit, I had the chance to make artwork for a school organization. Suddenly, I was the branding manager for a 50+ person robotics team. (Shout-out to the FIRST Robotics team Nicolet FEAR 4786!) With a scholarship from the team, I attended the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee where I graduated with a degree in Design and Visual Communication with a certificate in Digital Fabrication and Design. In other words, graphic design and fabrication.
