Approach + Experience
I bring over 15 years of experience as a web and print designer to higher-education, non-profit, and corporate clients. My experience, coupled with my collaborative approach to design, has helped me create long lasting relationships with some of the area’s prominent institutions and up-and-coming companies.
I specialize in a full range of strategic web services including research and analysis, information architecture, visual design, and usability, and have won several design awards for my work at Systems Alliance. Before joining Systems Alliance, I consulted for many educational institutions, not-for-profit organizations, and corporations in the Baltimore region, and held creative leadership positions at UMBC and an IT consulting firm. I have taught graphic and web design at UMBC and Towson University, and instructional design at Johns Hopkins University. I holds a doctorate in Communications Design and a master's in Publication Design from the University of Baltimore.
