I pursued graphic design because it gave me a way to translate feeling into form to make something visible out of experiences that are often difficult to name. As a trans person, I’ve grown up hyper aware of how identity is communicated, misread, and reshaped. That awareness pushed me toward design as a tool for clarity, expression, and reclamation. It’s not just about making things look good; it’s about making things felt and understood.

My work is grounded in the belief that design should be community based and rooted in care.
