Hi,
I’m a creative generalist working to produce remarkable content and user experiences.
With a T-shape posture, my focus has converged on a practice of strategic narrative and human centered design because I feel the narrative of a project is equally as important as the environment. When these two domains harmonize they can bring clarity and translate complex problems into creative, impactful and value-driven solutions.
I’m always excited to bring my experience, exposure and skills to new projects so feel free to have a look around and let’s have a chat.
Publishing, Production, Writing
Publishing HIGHWAY Magazine
In search of a new editorial and business model for my writing, I stepped out of my comfort zone and took a critical look at the [music] publishing scene to conceive, co-create and produce a print and digital publication. With its original editorial stance, design and distribution network, the publication immediately landed on the international scene alongside the established voices and received press and reprint requests from a variety of outlets. Here’s how the whole project came together from concept to completion to personal reflection.

Washington, D.C. Skateboard History for Full Service Radio at The Line Hotel
From pirate radio to a boutique hotel lobby comes a radio show re-examining Washington, D.C.’s rich skateboard history through the perspectives of creativity, personal growth, community activism, architecture, urbanization and exploration. When the grit met the shine it was ebullient and raw, and while we thought about going lightly scripted, the running joke was that the plug was going to be pulled at any moment.

Video Production, Content
Video production to accompany an original article on experimental musician Atsuhiro Ito for Wire magazine
Describing the abstract and raw nature of Atsuhiro Ito’s experimental work in addition to the sonic expressions he performs through a printed article was very, very challenging so I co-produced an accompanying video for the Wire Magazine’s website.
