hello there...
I've never been able to sit still in one medium for long — print, motion, product, digital, each one teaches you something the others can't. That restlessness comes from a belief that form and function are inseparable: the medium a message travels through changes what it means to the person receiving it.
Over the past decade, I've carried that instinct through agency work and in-house teams — VaynerMedia, THE SKIN DEEP, Yodel Pass — and now as Director of Design at NYC's Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, where I steward one visual identity across 13 divisions and 73 bureaus. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Graphic Communications from Baruch College – CUNY and a Master's in Documentary Film from City College of New York.
I'm drawn to purpose-driven work because I want the things I make to be useful to someone, not just seen.
