Working at the intersection of editorial design, motion graphics, image-making, and illustration, I operate collaboratively and independently to make things in the fields of entertainment, news, technology, pop culture, and media at large. As part of my practice I teach time-based design courses at Parsons School of Design, where I've been a faculty member since 2015, and at Yale University, from where I received an MFA in Graphic Design. I live and work in New York City.
