I’m a full-time graphic designer and run my paper art business on the side. I’ve lived in 3 countries and 4 states and currently reside in St. Louis, Missouri. I graduated from Washington University in St. Louis in 2019 with a Communication Design major and Spanish minor.

My work is driven by the physical act of making. I love working with my hands and incorporate sketching, layering, and cutting things out into all stages of my design process. I’m passionate about engaging with different cultures and draw inspiration from the people and stories around me.

In my free time I enjoy playing guitar, dancing, being outside, and wombats.

I’d love to hear from you!
