writer, designer, fitness enthusiast
I'm a graphic designer at Innovative Publishing in Louisville, Ky. (Formerly the lead sports designer for the Louisville Courier-Journal.) I graduated from Ohio University’s Scripps College of Communication with a degree in both Magazine Journalism and Informational Graphics/Publication Design. I combine skills from both of these areas of study to analyze and organize information in bold, clean, and conceptual ways.

A lifelong swimmer, exercise has always been a passion of mine. In my spare time, I enjoy Crossfit, weightlifting and Pilates.
