Christy is passionate about community and connection. She graduated from Willamette University with a Bachelor of Arts in Art and Politics. She also holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design from Art Center College of Design.
Christy’s strength is in defining strategies unique to each project. Since 2002, she has been thinking about graphic as an element of the built environment. Her recent work has focused on higher education, municipal wayfinding and parks/open spaces. In addition to these sectors of interest, she continues to work in multi-family and mixed use development.
Her skills are especially valuable in complex projects that yearn for intuitive solutions.
