About

She is an artist, designer, bookmaker, fruit-muncher, and occasional songwriter, with a passion for bridging language and art.

Open to freelance work and full-time positions.
Recent collaborators: Odgis + Co, Bay Area All Youth Fellowship (BAAYF), Typographics 2024, The Herb Lubalin Study Center, In Fine Company Broadway Productions, Remnant Westside Church.
