I am intimate and speedy with my swiss army knives: Figma, XD, Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. I organize my life with OmniFocus, Evernote, and several markdown-formatted notes.

I’ve worn many hats:

  • Senior Designer at a startup creative firm
  • Tech Director at a startup media company
  • Print Shop Manager of a mom-n-pop shop
