Selected Work
My work lives at the intersection of storytelling, design, journalism, technology, and community. Across newsrooms, nonprofit communications, publishing, photography, web design, and multimedia production, I’ve used words and visuals to make information clearer, stories more visible, and ideas more engaging.
This selected portfolio highlights work across editorial and visual journalism, publication design, digital communications, web development, photography, and multimedia. Each project reflects a different part of a career built around thoughtful storytelling, strong visual communication, and creating work that connects with real people.
