Biography
I'm a multidisciplinary designer in San Francisco specializing in graphic design, branding, and illustration. Hailing from Los Angeles, I'm creator of the brand VLY GRL, which smashes stereotypes through rad accessories, apparel, and zines.
I've worked in-house, at an agency, and as an independent across the hospitality, lifestyle, and nonprofit sectors. I've developed branding, graphic design, multimedia marketing campaigns, and more for brands like the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, Tillamook, and Capitol Corridor.
My design process is conceptual, clever, and collaborative. I work with organizations who share my values of spreading joy, cultivating community, and working together to make the world a better place — bringing my special brand of creativity, strategy, and passion to mission-based projects.
When I'm not making things, I'm running at Golden Gate Park, hiking trails around the Bay Area, or singing in the band Vincent Gargiulo National Park.
