Hi! I’m Brittany, a designer, illustrator, and educator. I have 20 years of experience building brands for growing businesses and telling their stories. The core of my process is always focused on reaching goals, and includes strategy, brand messaging, creative direction, social media content, and brand evolution. I mostly work on consumer-facing goods and services, big and small within the realm of food and beverage, hospitality—although I’m a sucker for editorial projects too. Let’s work together on your brand, whether it’s branding, packaging, illustration, something teeny, or the whole enchilada.

I’m actually a full-time Design Professor at Western Washington University in Bellingham, WA. I am very interested in education, mentorship, and speaking about design and illustration to all audiences. I graduated with a MFA and BFA in Graphic Design from Florida Atlantic University. I have lived in all four corners of the country, including Hawaii, and love calling the PNW my home. In my career as a designer I have worked as an art director, UX designer, brand consultant, packaging designer, illustrator, and humble intern. I’m so grateful to be in an industry that allows me the flexibility to work with such a range of products and services.

Let’s work together!
