I am a seasoned graphic designer specializing in illustration, packaging, merchandise, and branding. My passion for illustration ignited my creativity and drove me to become resourceful. While playing in various bands, I saw the critical need for compelling visual identities and affordable merchandise. To meet these needs, I taught myself screen printing, allowing me to create impactful and visually striking solutions. Starting with my own bands, I designed unique posters, t-shirts, and other merchandise, quickly catching the eye of other musicians. This led me to extend my screen printing services to friends’ bands and, as demand grew, to their companies. My self-taught journey in design and screen printing eventually propelled me to launch my own record label. There, I applied my skills to create record layouts and develop comprehensive merchandise lines for bands, all while managing projects and coordinating production. Today, I leverage my expertise in print and design to deliver customized, high-quality solutions for a diverse range of clients, including Fortune 500 companies. I recently graduated from Seattle Central Creative Academy (2024), where I refined my design skills and deepened my knowledge, equipping me to tackle complex projects and continue making a significant impact in the field of graphic design.

Industry Experience

Manufacturing, Professional Services, Other
    uniE621 Libertario Coffee Co
    The brand was in need of (2) RTD coffee beverages. They were also looking to give their customers an immersive experience, as well as a business-to-business interaction where people could see how special and novel their brand was. I created a RTD line that is unique and true to their brand but stands out among the competition on the shelves. When it came to the activations such as the pop up, we wanted to create an immersive experience that brought the customer into a culture and place that felt authentic and as unique as the beverage line flavors. The trade show activation was designed with intention to attract interests from other companies within the industry by bolstering the aesthetic in the décor and having some features for the passersby at said trade show to interact with.
    uniE621 Lana Del Rey- Summertime Sadness
    This design project is in celebration of the 10th anniversary of Lana Del Rey's seminal album "Born to Die." Alongside a special record reissue, the goal was to create a distinctive merchandise line to commemorate this milestone that the merchandise company Spumoni was spearheading. The design approach focused on creating a visually mnemonic piece, evoking nostalgia and familiarity. Drawing inspiration from the iconic little girl on the Morton's Salt packaging, the design aims to elicit a sense of homeliness and comfort, resonating deeply with fans. This familiar imagery not only connects with a broad audience but also reinforces the timeless and enduring nature of Lana Del Rey's music. By blending contemporary aesthetics with nostalgic elements, the "Summertime Sadness" merch design captures the essence of the album's legacy, offering fans a tangible connection to the music they love.
    uniE621 Björk - Homogenic LP Redux
    The client was looking to reissue Bjork’s album “Homogenic” but wanted to create a collector’s edition of the album. The new artwork needed to reimagine the aesthetic from that time without losing the original feel. The new design keeps the original feel through maintain the old color palette while the illustration shows Bjork literally shedding her skin from pop icon and into something more.
    uniE621 Link Light Rail - Rebrand
    Link light rail has experienced a few financial and operational problems over the years and as a result, people have lost trust in the link system. The current brand is not individualized from the greater public transportation system of Seattle. The new brand states that Link is there to move Seattle, and invites people to hop on. The visuals create a sense of fluid movement where graphic elements flow together in a warm and welcoming environment.
