Hi! I’m Ann!
I’m a designer based in the US with skills across graphics, product design, coding, illustration, and art direction. I thrive at the intersection of creativity and strategy, bringing an organized, data-driven mindset to visually compelling work and a passion for making information easy to absorb through design.
I recieved my Bacholors of Fine Arts with and emphasis in visual communication design at School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Over the past 7+ years, I have experience across startups, agencies, and freelance and it has shaped me into a versatile designer ready to make an impact..
When I am not designing, I like to:
Hanging out at coffee shops and museums
Watching stand-up comedy
Ice skating
Making new dog & cat friends
Not all at once but it will be fun to try!

I first entered college with the intention of getting a BA in Art Therapy, but during my sophomore year, I discovered my love for visual communication design. Taking an intro class for fun introduced me to the process of design, and I was inspired by my peers and professors. Since then, I have become a well-rounded designer, with a particular fondness for product design, accessibility in design, and digital content. My designs aim to be both practical and innovative, capturing people's curiosity and engagement.
