Hello!

I'm an art director and designer with 20+ years of experience shaping books, campaigns, and stories for trade publishers and lifestyle brands alike.

I’ve designed more than 50 books for publishers including Ten Speed Press, Chronicle Books, HarperOne, Oxmoor House, Weldon Owen, and Sunset — work that's earned four IACP Cookbook Award nominations (two wins), a Bookbuilders West Award (now Publishing Professionals Network), and press coverage from Publishers Weekly, Bloomberg, Food & Wine, Good Morning America, the San Francisco Chronicle, and the Los Angeles Times.

I’ve always had a soft spot for books, magazines, food, photography, the visual arts, and all things editorial, which have been an endless source of inspiration and joy throughout my career.

As co-founder of Book Kitchen, alongside writer Steve Siegelman, I take illustrated books from concept to print for national trade publishers and retail brands — full packaging, start to finish. I love the collaborative side of this work, partnering closely with writers, photographers, and stylists to bring each book to life. You can see more of our joint work at bookkitchen.com.

I bring that same creative direction to branding and campaign work, drawing on agency experience across brand identity systems, digital experience, and integrated advertising — with accounts including Google, Charles Schwab, and JP Morgan Chase.

If you want to launch a project, I'd love to collaborate and create something special for your next book or brand. Let's connect!
