After years of working with some of the biggest names in the game, I’m bringing that expertise to my independent practice. I work in wellness, fashion, and education, taking on roles in creative strategy, art direction, and executing design projects at a senior level—but never in a way that plays it safe.
Art direction and creative strategy—I don’t design for brands; I design for my clients’ clients. My work isn’t about trends or aesthetics—it’s about breaking the cycle of sameness. I study the culture surrounding a product or service, recognize the patterns everyone repeats, and detect cultural blind spots. Then, I turn those gaps into daring, strategic design that sets brands apart.
Production of web design, motion design, video editing, and all types of branding assets—From physical to digital, I create cohesive, high-impact visuals—including web design, video work, and full-scale branding assets. But I don’t just execute—I help shape the entire content ecosystem through cross-functional collaboration to push ideas further and ensure the message isn’t just seen but felt.
Educational and well-being-focused digital experiences—I create interactive, research-backed content that not only educates but entertains. Visually, my work refuses to blend in—bold, maximalist, and nothing like the usual muted wellness or education aesthetics.
Pitch & Prototype Development—I translate bold ideas into fundable, scalable concepts. My work has helped clients raise over $5M in funding, proving that creative strategy isn’t just about visuals—it’s about building compelling narratives that convince people to invest.
