Who am i ?!

I'm a DC & LA-based (bicoastal???) marketing director + brand strategist + artist + designer. I am currently the Events, Marketing, & Social Media Manager for Sonny’s Pizza, Doubles, Catboat, Bar Americano, & No Kisses in Washington DC among various side projects.

I love playing with the relationship between physical and digital media and am excited about making collages & pen on paper illustrations that bring “analog” craft into social media and other intangible spaces. I also love drawing my devil ladies. My ethos for just about everything is that you should absolutely judge a book by its cover. For most people, the primary way we consume the world is aesthetics so why not take every opportunity to make the world a more visually exciting place?! My work is currently focused on food & beverage / hospitality spaces , but I’m excited to work with any brand who cares about cool + hot + fun visuals!

Likes: Eve Babitz; scuba diving; hometown tours; physical media; weird architecture; Lady Gaga; Spanish tiles; vinegar; California natural wine; animal facts

Dislikes: boring wine labels; ugly AI flyers; celery (unfortunately); cookie cutter houses; the smell of bacon; grape flavored candy

A few things I’d extra love to work on: natty wine label design; from scratch restaurant branding; anything for specialty food brands (vinegar, olive oil, beans, tempeh…); weird girl literary fiction novel cover; wine faires; food pop-ups; marketing for any fun, interesting bars that are under appreciated / could be cool with the right branding
