About
Hello and welcome. I'm a former UX content designer and magazine editor now weaving together words, images, and visual design as a multidisciplinary creative.
After 6 years in the banking and credit card industry, and more than 15 years as a professional editor, I left my corporate job in search of more creative flexibility and ownership.
These days, I focus primarily on surface design, creating colorful repeat patterns and other elements for textiles, homeware, and accessories. My services also include:
✦ Copy editing for brands that value clarity and consistency
✦ Photo editing that subtly enhances visual storytelling
My work is rooted in curiosity, craftsmanship, and a love for conveying beauty and truth—whether through words, imagery, or a mixture of both.
If you're looking for thoughtful design with editorial smarts, let’s connect.
