California
Made.
I like to think that I am laid back—in my mind, that is what a true Californian should be—however, the reality is that I am a person who loves beauty yet needs order. I am a planner. I am known as someone who remembers dates or details, because they matter. It’s the small details that make up the bigger picture.
It is apparent to me now, that I was destined to be a graphic designer from a young age. During my childhood years, I was creative and always making art or making up games to organize my brothers (I would even hand out handmade certificates I had designed for the their efforts!). I loved to create order out of chaos and having a reason to create beautiful things.
Being a designer is being a visual problem solver. It uses both the flexibility and freedom of art with the rationale and structure of design. There must be a reason for the design.
And that’s how I ended up here. I love to design pieces that are not only beautiful, but functional. I crave to bring order to chaos wherever I can and these pieces are my small contribution.
Beautifully organized pieces to help you remember the details.
