Hi there!
Based in Vancouver, Canada.
I graduated from Emily Carr University of Art + Design with a degree in communication design. As a creative problem solver, I enjoy finding innovative ways to visually communicate key ideas to others.
 
​I attended the communication design program at MacEwan University. During my time in MacEwan, I joined the Design Student Organization, a school club aimed at making design less imtimidating to students. I was the clubs Community Lead, and my responsibilities were to create a strong student design community by leading weekly friendly online critique sessions, running mixers, and helping the club with their annual design convention and community work with Vignettes Edmonton.

In January of 2021, I began working at IMPAPER, a Calgary-based greeting card company. My job as their in house graphic designer ranges from illustrating greeting cards, designing promotional content, running social media, new product research and development, as well as many others.

In September of 2021 I transferred to Emily Carr University of Art + Design. Moving to a new city and living more independently has been both amazing and challenging and I'm still trying to find a design community here that I resonate with.
