Yep, that’s me! I’m a passionate graphic designer with a lifelong love for design. After earning my Bachelor of Arts in Communication Studies, I launched my career in marketing in New York City, where I gained invaluable experience collaborating with a talented team. However, I found myself drawn to design, creating projects that sparked joy and creativity within me. The vibrant art scene of the city continually inspired my work.

​

This passion led me to start my own jewelry business, Bowery Laine, where I immersed myself in the competitive market as a solo entrepreneur. Designing graphic elements—like my logo, marketing materials, and website—was incredibly fulfilling, further deepening my love for design.

​

When the pandemic hit, my business faced significant challenges, but it was during this time that I rediscovered my purpose through design. Seeking to enhance my skills, I enrolled in the Professional Program in Graphic Design at UC Berkeley. This experience was transformative; I engaged in courses that refined my abilities and prepared me for the industry. I received constructive feedback from industry professionals, which helped me grow as a designer.

​

Since graduating, I have been working as a freelancer, but in 2023, I faced a significant challenge when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I took a break to focus on my health, but I’m happy to share that I am now in full remission and back to work. I’m currently seeking new opportunities to further my career in graphic design, excited to bring my creativity and passion to a new team!
