I’m an art director, designer and creative leader who is passionate about visual storytelling and wielding design to solve problems and evoke emotion. For nearly a decade, I developed and maintained the visual brand at The Texas Tribune, a leading news source for Texas politics and public policy, most recently as design director. Along with leading the design team, one of my primary roles was to collaborate across departments, working with the editorial, photo, audience, and engineering teams to visually package investigative stories and award-winning data projects. Some of my areas of expertise include developing design systems, ideating visual possibilities for complex data sets, and bringing brands to life through illustration, layout, and typography. I collaborate with festival organizers, musicians, filmmakers, and entrepreneurs to craft impactful visuals to enhance their brand identities.
