I’m a senior multidisciplinary designer driven by a simple belief: thoughtful design is the most powerful tool in clear communication. For over 12 years, I’ve partnered with mission-driven organizations, non-profits, and public agencies to turn complex strategies into resonant, human-centered experiences.

I love this work because it lives at the intersection of creative expression and strategic intent. Whether I’m leading an initiative, building systems from the ground up, or collaborating within a broader creative team, I bring an eye for the big picture without ever losing sight of the finer details. As a natural bridge-builder and advocate, I balance the goals of my clients with the real-world needs of their end users—articulating vision with clarity, guiding process with care, and ensuring every touchpoint feels deliberate.

Why Strategic Systems & Universal Accessibility Matter

True community and climate resilience requires reaching everyone without friction, clutter, or exclusion. I help organizations build digital infrastructure and visual campaigns that endure.

  • Purposeful & Intuitive Strategy: By pairing clear visual hierarchy with cohesive brand architecture, we translate complex public initiatives into digestible and actionable messaging.
  • Rigorous Systems & Detail: From meticulous brand guidelines to cohesive multi-channel assets, I establish design systems that catch inconsistencies early and maintain harmony as your organization scales.
  • Universal Access & Compliance: Accessibility isn’t an afterthought—it’s fundamental. Through WCAG 2.1 AA/AAA-compliant web design and Section 508 document remediation, we ensure your platforms are fully screen-reader friendly, performant, and accessible to every community member.
  • Search & Performance Optimization: Built-in structural clarity and semantic standards do more than fulfill compliance; they boost organic search visibility, speed up load times, and deliver seamless mobile experiences.

    Where you’ll find me

    I’m probably out hiking or paddling with my dog, sniffing fruit at the farmers’ market, climbing a wall, or getting my hands dirty in the pottery studio. Besides making art, my favorite way to spend time is connecting with people.

    I’m a Californian Bay Area native now based in the Lisboa region of Portugal, enjoying another west coast and working with both timezones.
