Clients & Organizations
Broad Experience, Focused Work
I’ve worked with a wide range of organizations, from small teams to large institutions, on projects that require clarity, consistency, and long-term usefulness. While much of my work has been in higher education, healthcare, professional services, and mission-driven organizations, I regularly collaborate with clients across many industries.
Design with Purpose
Many of the projects I take on involve organizing complex information and presenting it in a way that’s easy to understand and use. My focus is on design that supports real communication—materials that hold up in real-world environments, across formats and audiences.
Flexible, Reliable Design Support
I’m comfortable stepping in at any point in a project, whether helping shape direction early or providing steady design support through production. Clients often rely on me for consistency, follow-through, and clear thinking as projects move forward.
Writing & Insights
Writing on graphic design, communication, process, and occasional reflections from years of professional practice.
