Artist Statement

As an expert in design systems, web accessibility, HTML/CSS, and typography, my design philosophy is rooted in a fundamental understanding of the web. My passion for typography, cultivated during my BFA in Graphic Design at Massachusetts College of Art and Design, directly informed my decision to pursue web design professionally. I consider typography to be the most critical foundation of any website, given its text-centric nature. Picking typefaces and typesetting are my first order of business on any new projects.
I firmly believe that design is about solving problems, a principle instilled by a wise mentor. This conviction drove my path to specializing in accessible web design. While strong typographic forms and visual hierarchy are important, they must be balanced with robust function and an intuitive user experience for all people. I am committed to ensuring all my designs are usable, useful, and truly inclusive.
For me, HTML and CSS are powerful design tools, every bit as critical as visual design software. Proficiency in these languages provides a clear understanding of web technology limitations, enabling me to rapid prototype designs that faithfully execute the original intent. This combined skillset has been instrumental in architecting numerous style guides and design systems throughout my career, which served as strong, accessible foundations for their respective websites.
