Hello!

I'm a designer and art director based in Boston with 10+ years of experience. I create brands that go beyond a logo — from print to digital, and photography.

I'm also working with an amazing team to open Comfort Kitchen — a cafe and restaurant coming soon to Dorchester, MA.

 

Email me to chat about posted projects or potential collaborations. I'm currently open for freelance and contract work.
