You might say I’ve been a graphic designer since birth.

I was definitely the only kid on the block who spent their spare time tracing fonts from old Dover books. My first professional gig was to design the program cover for my elementary school’s talent show back in Atlanta, GA. That was fourth grade.

I made a beeline toward a BFA in Graphic Design and graduated magna cum laude from the University of Georgia. Nowadays, as I drive about Los Angeles, I use the billboards to test my font identification (Avenir? Nope, it’s Gotham). It’s true; I often dream in Adobe. I’ve watched every episode of Mad Men…thrice.

Does that make me sound one dimensional? I’m actually interested in everything and anything, which makes me a more passionate and dynamic designer. When I’m not in front of my computer, you might find me listening to NPR’s Marketplace, finessing my one-handed backhand, reading up on esoteric geography, talking to my tomato plants, baking cardamon-infused cookies, or hiking and skiing somewhere (and everywhere) in the West.

I’m exceptionally privileged. I do what I love for a living.
