About
My design style is influenced by phenomenology and experimenting with ways to make the mundane appear otherworldly by cropping, obscuring, or pushing the physical boundaries of a page. My style is driven by whimsy and a playful interaction between text and imagery, and I let texture and tactility drive much of my work to ground it back in reality and invite the viewer to take a closer look. I have a strong interest in the psychology of color, and carefully use color to indicate the tone or mood of a piece.
