Familiar


Art direction, branding, and full creative development for Familiar—a home goods shop and gallery I co-founded in 2022 with my partner. Showcasing the things we make—ceramics, plants, art, heavy things—work from local artists, and found vintage. From visual identity to brand experience, online presence to spatial styling, every aspect of the brand was shaped by hand, from concept to execution. This project embodies not just what I do, but what I believe and how I think.

Logos
A selection of logos created for a wide range of projects and clients. Each design is tailored to fit the client’s goals and identity, with a focus on distinctiveness and singularity. It’s a glimpse at how I approach design challenges.

Bigsby House


Branding and creative direction for Bigsby House, a salon I've worked with since they first opened in 2012. Over the years—and through  location changes and brand evolutions—I’ve helped shape their visual identity into something that feels cohesive, welcoming, and distinct. This project reflects my holistic view of branding: from booking an appointment online to walking through the salon door, everything is intentional.

Printed Stuff


A collection of printed stuff I’ve designed—primarily event invitations and everything that goes with that. From illustration to layout to paper stock and print method, every detail is considered.

Awake


Branding and art direction for Awake, the first therapy practice in Northern California to be certified by the DBT-Linehan Board of Certification. The goal was to move away from the sterile, clinical feel often associated with mental health spaces—creating a visual identity that feels calm, approachable, and grounded.
