I’m a Texas-born graphic designer based in Austin, TX. Upon graduating from Texas Tech University, I delved headfirst into the dynamic world of design, where my passion has only continued to grow. My design interests center around package design and branding, where I thrive on crafting unique identities and captivating packaging solutions. Currently, I’m also immersing myself in UI/UX web design, always eager to expand my skills and stay ahead of industry trends. Alongside my professional endeavors, I’ve been freelancing wedding invitations, infusing each project with creativity and personal touches.
Outside of work, I share my life with my high school sweetheart, Blake, and our two lively dachshunds, Milo & Moose. For fun, I also explore the world of stained glass art, finding joy in the vibrant colors and intricate patterns. Let’s collaborate and bring your design visions to life!
