I started out designingfor creators with millionsof followers.

While everyone else was picking gamertags with too many Xs, I learned to design for audiences measured in the millions — thumbnails, overlays, and brand kits for FaZe Clan’s roster. That pressure taught me design isn’t self-expression. It’s making something that works.

Ten years on, I run engagements end to end. The latest shipped a nonprofit’s sixteen-page site to production and left the client better than a handoff — a scripted publishing interface to their own CMS. At Studio 93 I carried five brands at once, working to CD, PM, and strategist briefs. I once made passwords look exciting, which honestly deserves its own Cannes category.

My work sits in LogoLounge Book 15 — and, more importantly, on my mother’s fridge.

Today, I’m looking for a team where design drives the mission. Not decorates it.
