I’m a creative director, artist, and designer specializing in thoughtful brand identity, cutting-edge editorial design, and simple yet elegant digital experiences. Known for a holistic approach that fuses strategy with storytelling, I’ve helped shape the visual language for a diverse range of clients in corporate and independent fashion, lifestyle, and culture.

My portfolio is defined by landmark projects such as the complete brand emergence of Kae Paché, done as Creative Director of BLAK SALT Studio, and the editorial design system for 43 Magazine, an influential skateboard photography publication in New York City.

Today, I continue to forge meaningful connections between brands and audiences through BLAK SALT Studio, which provides creative and marketing services for the “New Paradigm,” where I lead a team dedicated to creating meaningful work with the collective elevation of its audience and the mutual prosperity of its collaborators in mind.
