I am a professional graphic designer, illustrator, and educator based in South Carolina. I received my MFA in Graphic Design from the Savannah College of Art & Design in 2005. I’ve been working as a professional designer for over 20 years.
Toggle Design Collective
Toggle Design Collective is a creative partnership that works over state lines. I team with fellow designer and educator, Rebecca Carr (who lives in Louisiana) on branding, illustration, and other design projects. Together, we can take on larger projects and share our strengths.

Teaching & Course Development
Currently, I teach online courses for the Media + Design program at Tulane University’s School of Professional Advancement. In addition to teaching, I collaborate on curriculum development, helping to improve existing courses and build new elective courses to meet the ever-changing demands of the design field. My teaching emphasizes practical design skills, critical thinking, and professional preparedness. It’s incredibly rewarding to see my student’s confidence grow and the creative work they produce!
