BACKGROUND

I earned my BFA in Graphic Design from SUNY Fredonia in 2007. After spending the first decade of my career working with various agencies and studios, I founded Stronghold Studio, where I’ve spent the nearly 10 years helping brands bring their ideas to life through smart, purposeful design.

My work has given me the opportunity to partner with a wide range of clients—from food & beverage and lifestyle brands to startups and established consumer brands. I also regularly collaborate with other agencies and studios, bringing additional creative support and experience to their teams when they need it.

That range of experience has made me a versatile designer, comfortable jumping into new industries, solving unfamiliar challenges, collaborating with different kinds of teams and carrying an idea from concept through execution.
