It all started with a box of LEGOs and coloring booklets in 2nd grade. Today, I’m a Senior Brand Designer and Design Professor specializing in brand identity and strategy. My work includes Cornell Engineering, Ascend Bank, and CSCU, translating complex ideas into clear, compelling brand identities.

At the university level, I lead curriculum development, department rebrands, and student mentorship, connecting industry standards with strong design fundamentals.

I hold an MA in Information Design and a BA in Graphic Design from Central Connecticut State University, along with a certificate of completion from Harvard Business School Executive Education’s Creating Brand Value program. My experience also includes presenting at CCSU’s Re-Preset Symposium on “How Photography Affects and Influences Cultural Trends” and chairing Design for Good initiatives at AIGA Connecticut, including Make-A-Thon.
