I was born and raised in Queens, and followed my parents’ good advice to get a degree in political science. After graduating Wesleyan University’s College of Social Studies, I came back to New York and translated my young love for art, social science and parties by designing packaging and retail for Moet Hennessy, Lacoste and Remy-Cointreau.
After 5 years, I left to launch as small design studio creating exhibition identities and books for Storm King Art Center, Columbia University, CitiGroup Center for Culture and Hunter College Art Galleries while working on my masters thesis on MoMA’s visual identity during the early years.
I closed shop to join Anomaly’s design team, where as Head of Design I had the privilege of building and leading the design department, leading innovation, brand identities and campaigns. For Wolff Olins New York, I led the design team, where my multidisciplinary background came full circle; uniting my love for research, writing and personal commitment to design for good. In 2019, I joined WeWork’s in-house creative agency to evolve their visual identity. I also speak and judge nationally and have taught Branding & Messaging and Senior Portfolio at Pratt Institute.
Currently, I support Instagram’s Central Design Studio.
