My Approach

Story-Driven

Every collection begins with a story. Whether it's playful animals, cheerful school supplies, or blooming botanicals, I create artwork that captures a feeling first. My goal is to design patterns that spark joy and invite people to connect with everyday moments.

Thoughtfully Crafted

Great surface pattern design is more than a beautiful illustration. I carefully consider color, scale, and repeat, so each collection works seamlessly across fabric, stationery, wallpaper, and more. Every design is created with both creativity and usability in mind.

Collaborative

The best licensed collections come from strong partnerships. I enjoy working closely with manufacturers, art directors, and creative teams to understand our shared vision. Together, we create products that feel relatable, cohesive, and charming.
