Work Samples
I’m a designer who loves stories. I offer fluid design styles tailored to each project, while maintaining consistency within each visual direction.
Children’s books design & illustration
When I’m not working on design projects for clients, I write and illustrate children’s books — my dream side job!
As a published author/illustrator, I’ve worked with the design team at Scholastic to create print-ready artworks and design the covers (including hand-lettering the titles) of my own picture books: Surprise! (2018) and The Ways We Say "I Love You" (2024) as well as for Emma Donoghue’s chapter books The Lotterys (2017 & 2018).
Scope: Writing, Illustration, Cover design, Hand-lettering
Client: Scholastic

Amplify Math
Amplify creates interactive core curriculum that inspires students to learn in a fun, creative, and challenging way. They partnered with Desmos to build social, collaborative curriculum for K-5 and middle school math, including online learning tools and workbooks.
Scope: Brand Identity refresh, Illustration, Wayfinding system design
Client: Amplify Math
Additional Credits: Todd Rawson (Design Director)
I worked with curriculum developers to refresh the visual system for Amplify Math grade bands (K-5, 6-8 and 9-11) to be implemented across its printed materials, as a compliment to the digital curriculum.
This includes updating the visual language and cover illustrations as well as the wayfinding system of labels for clearly and easily navigating printed materials.
Amplify ELA: Summer of the Mariposas
Amplify ELA creates interactive core curriculum that inspires students to read more deeply, write more vividly, and think more critically. I collaborated with curriculum creators and editors, to create all the illustrations for this Reading the Novel unit.
Scope: Concept Art, Illustration, Layout, Social Media Templates
Client: Amplify ELA
Additional Credits: Tory Novikova (Art Director)
Built around the novel, Summer of the Mariposas by Guadalupe Garcia McCall. It follows the journey of 5 sisters who cross the border into Mexico, in search of their father.
SEAFEST 2026 Logo + Artwork
SEAFEST is a vibrant celebration of Southeast Asian heritage, evolved from the success of the Khmer New Year Festival and built through collaboration among Maine’s Khmer, Thai, Filipino, and Vietnamese communities. This dynamic event highlights the region’s traditions, arts, music, dance, and culinary culture, offering an immersive experience for people of all backgrounds.

The League of Moveable Type
The League of Moveable Type is an open-source type foundry. We realized that there are a lot of free fonts out there, and as designers, we wanted to raise the standard of typography and design on the web.
Scope: Co-Founder, Product/Concept Development, Visual Identity, Type Design
Additional Credits: Micah Rich (Co-Founder)
We created an open-source type foundry where we focus on quality not quantity, to provide people with hand-picked high quality typefaces.
Junction
The very first typeface we added to The League's font library was Junction, a humanist sanserif typeface I’d designed.
Revival typefaces
I designed two revival typefaces exclusively for The League’s catalogue: League Gothic & League Spartan, both are old classics and two of our favorite typefaces.
Thegoodsideof.us
For this project, I collaborated with two fellow designers. We believe that designers have the power to create change, so we wanted our thesis to be an invention, something that could do some good in the world. We created thegoodsideof.us. As a website, it’s a place to share stories of little good deeds that people encounter daily. As an idea, it’s a revolution in what it means to make the world a better place.
Scope: Product/Concept Development, Brand Strategy, Visual Identity, UI Design, Event Coordination & Marketing
Community project: Otis College of Art & Design, Los Angeles, CA
