Overview
Working with self-publishing clients and as the Art Director at North Atlantic Books (distributed by Penguin Random House), I've designed book covers and interiors for a wide variety of genres. My concentration is generally non-fiction, including sustainability, activism, nutrition, health/healing, astrology, yoga, spirituality, and literature. Each design is crafted with the individual tone, target audience, and subject in mind, resulting in a unique look for each project that will shine on a coffee table or Instagram.
Since I work in so many genres, I'm very fortunate to have a portfolio wide-ranging in style, from photo collage to text intertwining with illustration. I love creating something unexpected through design that will entice readers and set the book apart from others on the shelf.
