Hello buddy.

I'm a senior graphic designer, focused primarily on brand identity at Rivers Agency. Prior to that, I helped start Status Forward where I designed identities and websites, while serving as lead writer and occasional salesperson.

I believe that "human-centered design" is inseparably tied to writing and tone. Nothing says "fake" like a big blob of over-serious, polished turd copy, accompanied by a nice, crisp stock photo.

Be kind, have fun, and throw in a bad word here or there. A little lightheartedness goes a long way.

Holler at me
