Cover image for Merch and Apparel Design for Culture-Driven Brands

I work with brands that need their identity to live on physical products. A graphic on a tee, a patch on a bag, a label on a hat. These are not decorations. They are the brand made tangible, and they need to be designed with the same intention as the identity itself.

My work spans apparel graphics, accessory design, and branded merchandise across lifestyle, music, sport, and outdoor categories. I have designed product collections for global brands including Beatport, Death Row Records, and Mt. Bachelor, as well as founder-led labels from the ground up.
What I do:
Original graphic development for tees, hoodies, hats, shorts, outerwear, and accessories. Illustration, typography-driven graphics, pattern design, and multi-colorway systems. Files prepared for screen print, embroidery, woven labels, rubber patches, debossing, and direct to garment production. I understand how a design behaves differently on a chest print versus a woven label versus a debossed hardware detail, and I design accordingly.
Who I work with:
Brands launching a first collection. Established labels adding a new product line. Collaborations that need a visual system built around two identities at once.
The result:
Product graphics that feel intentional. Collections with a point of view. Files your manufacturer can work with from day one.

Available for project engagements and ongoing creative retainers.
