SALUTATIONS
I’m a creative director + graphic designer.
My work is heavily rooted in storytelling and editorial design.
After 14 years living and working in New York City, I returned to my adopted hometown of Charlotte, NC in late 2017.
Other interests include: painting, photography, cats, pizza, the Charlotte Hornets, dairy products, disc golf and straight razor shaves.
