I am pleased to represent Arrowstreet Architecture and Design’s west coast presence from my studio in Seattle, WA as a Senior Associate and member of the Experience Design Studio. I have been with the firm since 2016, and In that time I have designed and produced graphics for numerous schools including Blackstone Valley Prep High School (Cumberland, RI), Conservatory Lab Charter School (Dorchester, MA), Newton Early Childhood Program (Newton, MA), Alma del Mar Frederick Douglass Campus (New Bedford, MA), and Global Learning Center for STEAM Education (New Bedford, MA). I have also designed and produced graphics for numerous residential projects including 650 Ocean (Revere, MA), Gibson Point (Revere, MA), 355 Bennington Street (East Boston, MA), and Elevate (Cambridge, MA). I have also designed signage for Pilgrim Monument and Provincetown Museum (Provincetown, MA). I am currently working on graphics and signage for L.L.Bean’s flagship campus renovation (Freeport, ME) and Blithewold Arboretum and Manor (Bristol, RI).
Prior to my work at Arrowstreet I was the art director for Suffolk University’s Office of Marketing and Communications (2004–2014). In that role, I oversaw and worked alongside a team of graphic designers working in both print and environmental projects. Before that, I worked at Flanders + Associates (1996–2002), a small design agency in Boston, as a designer where I worked on both print and exhibit projects.
I have been an adjunct professor at a number of area colleges and universities including Massachusetts College of Art and Design, Clark University, Wentworth Institute of Technology, Emmanuel College, and Fitchburg State University.
I hold and MFA in Graphic Design from Vermont College of Fine Arts and a BFA in Graphic Design from Massachusetts College of Art and Design.
