Summary

Your go-to creative partner for ongoing brand success ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ’ป
If you're a growing business that needs high-quality creative support - but not a full-time design team - this flexible partnership model is built for you.
With over 7 years of experience supporting digital-first companies around the world, I help brands show up consistently and compellingly across every touchpoint. From investor decks that win buy-in to social media assets that drive traction, every design is rooted in strategy and crafted to move your business forward.
This isnโ€™t just task-based execution. I bring a strategy-first lens to design, working alongside you to solve real challenges with every asset we ship - whether itโ€™s a quick-turn graphic, a multi-page deck, or an evolving brand system. Youโ€™ll always have access to expert-level design thatโ€™s thoughtful, cohesive, and aligned with your goals.
Whether you're building momentum or scaling fast, I offer both hourly and retainer-based support to keep your brand looking sharp and performing even better. My process is clear, collaborative, and tailored to your team - so you always get what you need, when you need it.
Letโ€™s make your brand not just seen - but remembered. This is ongoing creative support, done strategically.
