Overview
I’m an illustrator & product designer with a strong passion for visually communicating intricate concepts.
Craft.
I have blended two worlds for over a decade, crafting intuitive experiences used and loved by millions—as a product designer for TextNow, and celebrating Canada's culture and heritage—as an artist with the Royal Canadian Mint.
