About

The creative and the operational.

Full bio

I studied Graphic Design at York University and Sheridan College, graduating with a Bachelor of Design with Honours. Drawn west by a love of fashion and visual culture, I continued at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising in San Francisco, completing a Visual Communications certificate and graduating Summa Cum Laude.


My career began at Levi Strauss, where I produced global merchandising assets and developed a deep appreciation for brand consistency at scale. I then joined Conduit Creative Studio in Los Angeles as a Concept Designer, developing multi-channel design through retail, fashion and marketing.


For six years, I co-founded and led creative direction at Lot, Stock and Barrel - a creative collective in LA specializing in apparel, spatial, and graphic design. We partnered with brands to design and produce experiential retail activations, product launches, and music festivals.


In 2021, I joined Block (Square Inc.) as a Production Designer and was promoted to Digital and Web Production Lead within 10 months — leading a growing team and managing publishing operations across 17,000+ pages in 8 countries and 11 locales, reducing delivery cycles from 5–6 months to weeks, and driving a +$500M annualized incremental NVA contribution.


Five years back in Toronto and still going - I bring the full breadth of this work, strategic, creative, and operational, to companies both big and small.
