Laylow Pictures
Laylow Pictures is an award-winning documentary studio behind Magic & Bird: A Courtship of Rivals and the Oscar-, Emmy-, and Peabody-winning O.J.: Made in America.
Its identity—titled after the Notorious B.I.G. lyric “stay low and keep firing”—uses a custom wide wordmark that sits low and adapts easily. The letterforms weave through documentary imagery to create a distinct, unobtrusive signature.

NYU Skirball 2022–2023
A promotional brochure for the 2022 Spring season that celebrates emerging from the pandemic and expands on the original brand identity for NYU’s center for the performing arts.
The design draws inspiration from the counterculture heritage of Greenwich Village and the graphic traditions of downtown NYC—gig posters, handmade flyers, zines, and alternative newspapers.

Metropolis by Marcus Samuelsson
Metropolis by Marcus Samuelsson is a contemporary American restaurant located within the new Perelman Performing Arts Center (PAC NYC) in Downtown Manhattan. Its brand identity draws on the restaurant’s distinctive interior design and its position at the crossroads of Lower Manhattan.
The logo takes inspiration from the massive steel beams separating the dining room and lounge, which naturally form a perfect “M.” The wordmark pairs this symbol with the contrasting serif typeface Ivar Display (by Letters from Sweden).
The “M” can be repeated to create graphic patterns for menus, ties, and other applications, while its parallelogram forms can be isolated as slashes or combined to build additional letterforms.

Designed by Verizon
Designed by Verizon is a brand book created to celebrate Verizon’s visual identity and offer a glimpse into how the brand might evolve. The goal was to explore how expressive and dynamic the system could become when pushed to its limits using only its core assets.

It’s Your Verizon
The “It’s Your Verizon” campaign centers on putting the customer in full control of their Verizon experience. You choose how the network works best for you. To express this positioning, the design system removes the “i” from the Verizon logo and replaces it with imagery, reinforcing the idea that the customer is at the center of the brand.

I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Graphic Design from Mercy College and began my career as a junior designer at 8 Point Studio, where I focused on motion graphics, branding, and packaging. I joined Michael Bierut’s team at Pentagram in January 2020 and became an associate partner in 2023. During my time there, I worked on a wide range of projects, including brand evolution for Verizon, promotional campaigns for NYU Skirball Center, and brand identities for clients such as the Academy Award–winning documentary studio Laylow Productions and Metropolis, the Marcus Samuelsson restaurant at the Perelman Performing Arts Center.
I am currently a Design Director at Cardigan, where I help lead design initiatives across various clients and projects.
