I’m a New York native, senior designer, and visual artist with a lifelong passion for new media and the culture of the city. My introduction to graphic design came through lettering and creating flyers for nightlife events. My love of lettering and typography came from a love of graffiti and my urban environment. I quickly became interested in branding and communicating ideas through visuals. As I gained experience with different tools, that expanded into unconventional workflows, animation, and video.
In 2010, I completed a three-year run as Art Director for MethodsNYC, a Brooklyn-based streetwear brand, and launched MOTIONGRAFF, a project using stop-motion animation to document the creative process. Stop motion became my gateway into video editing and short-form narrative work. Through this approach, I produced projects for Sony, Scion A/V, Clio, Greenhouse Agency, independent films, and indie record labels including Play Me Records, V Recordings, and Playaz Recordings.
In 2022, I began working with the Tribeca Festival. Across five festival seasons, including its 25th anniversary, I have worked as a seasonal Senior Designer, creating designs and templates to support the creative team while also taking on much of the festival’s in-house video and motion design work.
In fall 2026, I was brought on to develop the brand system for the inaugural ALZA Festival, the first festival focused on microdramas and vertical storytelling. The work ranged from logo variations and color systems to advertising, digital graphics, and large-scale event signage.
As a big design and media nerd, it has been especially rewarding to see these projects come to life in public spaces.
I hold a BA in Humanities from NYU, with a minor in Media Studies. I’m currently taking courses through School of Motion to continue expanding my animation and motion design skills. Outside of digital work and making art, my interests include obscure films, listening to records, and studying Russian and Japanese on Duolingo.
