GRAPHIC DESIGN

• 
• 

For me design is a reaction to things I see in the world, things that aesthetically fascinate me, clean lines, unique typography, cohesive color palettes. I am inspired by designers like Paula Scher, Virgil Abloh, Massimo Osti, Teddy Santis, Tadao Ando, and Massimo Vignelli, to name a few. I am influenced by grandmother and father who were both talented artists, practicing sculpture, painting, illustration, photography, and carpentry. When designing I find myself drawn to vintage references from photography and print media. My design work is clean, minimal, and nostalgic, with a major focus on typography and composition. I believe that graphic design is ubiquitous and it is a part of every persons daily life, whether they recognize it or not.
