I am a student at Parsons School of Design pursuing a BFA in Communication Design and graduating in 2026. As a first generation student who grew up in Massachusetts, my background plays a big role in how I approach research, storytelling, and visual systems. I am drawn to projects that balance structure and intuition, using design as a way to ask questions and break down complex ideas in a way that feels clear and approachable. My work reflects a strong commitment to process, curiosity, and growth, while always staying grounded in purpose.
When it comes to my design style, I work intentionally and with care, allowing ideas to develop through research, testing, and iteration. I enjoy building systems and frameworks, while also leaving space for instinct and experimentation. I am especially interested in typography, sequencing, and image making, and how small visual decisions can shift meaning or change how something is experienced over time. I am drawn to work that feels thoughtful, and I care deeply about clarity, rhythm, and cohesion. Overall, I see design as a tool for understanding and communication, and my goal is to create work that feels honest, considered, and engaging to spend time with.
Alongside my academic work, I have gained experience through internships and independent projects that have strengthened both my conceptual and practical skills. I have worked on visual identity systems, editorial layouts, and social media content across different contexts, including fashion and marketing, where I focused on translating ideas into clear and engaging visuals. Through these roles, I have developed strong communication skills and an ability to work within fast paced environments while managing multiple projects at once. My thesis project, Bearing Arms, reflects this approach by combining research, photography, and production into a fully realized publication, where I explored material processes like leather binding and laser engraving as part of the design itself.
