About the designer

Since 2022, I’ve worked as a graphic designer and commercial illustrator, web developer, administrator, fire safety planner, and, most recently, an in-house marketer. The bulk of my creative work has centred around advertising, brand development, content creation, and copywriting.

 

In 2025, I earned a Bachelor of Business Administration with a focus in Marketing from Okanagan College, where I studied advertising and communications, marketing research, project management, e-commerce, web development, SEO and analytics, and service design.

 

For me, good design isn’t just visually appealing—it’s intentional. I try to understand who it’s for, what it needs to communicate, and what it’s meant to accomplish.​

​​​

My most-used tools are Procreate and Adobe Illustrator & InDesign. I’m comfortable across the Adobe Creative Suite and have experience with Canva, Figma, Blender, AutoCAD, and web platforms including Wix, Shopify, and DealerSpike. I’m also always happy to learn a new piece of software when a project calls for it.

​

When working with clients, I tend to structure the process as follows:

  1. We’ll start with an initial meeting to discuss the project scope, deliverables, timeline, and any ideas or inspiration you already have.

  2. I’ll follow up with a quote for services via email. Quotes are valid for one month.

  3. Once the quote is accepted, a 50% deposit is required to secure the project and begin work.

  4. I’ll get to work according to our agreed-upon timeline. For larger or more involved projects, I’ll share rough concepts, sketches, or drafts along the way to make sure we’re headed in the right direction.

  5. Once the work is complete, I’ll send the finished product over for review.

  6. Any final revisions or adjustments are completed. Additional work outside the original project scope is reflected in the final invoice.

  7. The remaining balance is invoiced and final files are delivered.

Got an idea? Let’s talk. I’m always down to brainstorm, problem-solve, or figure out how to bring a half-formed idea to life :)
