I'm a Seattle-based Artist & Designer
Design Philosophy: Less is more. Editing a design down to the bare essentials is a practice that I exercise on a daily basis.
While at work: I provide creative vision for all design projects; promoting sound UX design while supporting business objectives.
I'm always interested in new opportunities & partnerships
