Logo Design + Branding
I have created logos and comprehensive brand identity systems for clients across a wide variety of industries, having the opportunity to take full ownership over brands and collaborate within a team. I’ve developed brand guidelines that include typography systems, color palettes, logo usage, and brand assets to ensure consistency across all media.
Package Design
I’ve designed packaging for beverage, food, and supplement brands across a variety of formats, including cans, bottles, cartons, and flexible packaging. I’ve developed robust packaging systems that aligned with brand strategy, enhanced shelf presence, and maintained production-ready specifications.
Print Layout + Production
I have experience creating cohesive sets of marketing materials across a wide range of media, such as signage, posters, sell sheets, point of sale items, in-store displays, on-premise, OOH advertising, and merch.
Digital Marketing
I have created a number of digital marketing and web assets, including display ads, website layouts, email campaigns, and social media content, that remain consistent with brand guidelines and are optimized for their respective platforms.

About Me
I am a graphic designer from Winston-Salem, North Carolina currently living in Mouth of Wilson, Virginia. I received my BFA in Illustration from the Savannah College of Art and Design and have since worked as an in-house designer, freelance, and in a studio setting.
In recent years, I’ve specialized in package design in the food and beverage space. However, my experience spans many different industries, including e-commerce, b2b, real estate, and more. I enjoy working across all types of media to create meaningful design solutions.
When I’m not creating, I’m wrangling a bird dog, two cats, two horses, and a spunky donkey on my family farm in Virginia.
