Art Director

Creative & Design

Somehow a passion for drawing as a child has led to a decade long career in graphic design. Having been fortunate enough to work on a wide range of projects (apparel, gig posters, packaging, web, etc.) has made those 10+ years whiz by.

Collaboration, knowledge, & creativity are the basis for my process. The more you listen, the more you know, the more you know, the more you can create. Being a founder of KAAND CO. with fellow designer Karena Pavon, as well a member of the 1th art collective has put these principles into practice.

Though design is huge part of my life, there are other deep interests. You can usually find me drawing or painting, counting to four behind the drum kit, making electronic sounds in Garageband, or basking in the Southern California sun.


As art director, I lead the design team from concept to the creation of all visual assets. This includes moodboarding seasonal collections, private label graphic t-shirt designs, and marketing design assets.
