I've been designing since I was 16, diving into career-focused design classes as early as I could.

Sketch & Such
Truthfully, I've never fit in the corporate world, or most worlds in general. I'm the employee found sitting on the floor of my cubicle, curled up in a blanket, surrounded by design books and sketches, looking for a new way to solve the problem and bring an idea to life.
Building my own studio gave me the freedom to create the kind of business I believe in—one where ideas are welcomed, curiosity is encouraged, and creativity isn't squeezed into a box. Whether you arrive with a fully formed vision or a half-finished thought scribbled on a napkin, this is a space where big dreams, unconventional ideas, and honest collaboration can thrive.
When you work with Sketch & Such, you're working directly with me from start to finish. No account managers. No corporate layers. Just thoughtful design, open communication, and a creative partner who genuinely cares about helping your business grow.
For the past 13 years, I've had the privilege of working with businesses of all sizes, creating everything from logos and packaging to marketing materials, social media graphics, and print design. Along the way, I've learned that great design isn't just about making things look good—it's about understanding what makes a business special and finding thoughtful ways to bring that story to life.
But Sketch & Such started because of something bigger than design.
After moving from Dallas to Akron, Ohio, I quickly fell in love with this corner of the world and the businesses that give it so much character. The family-owned shops, the neighborhood favorites,
the places with stories tucked into every corner—these are the businesses that make communities feel like home.
As I got to know local business owners, I noticed something. Many didn't need a large agency or a complicated process. They needed someone in their corner. Someone they could call with an idea, ask
a question, brainstorm with over coffee, or trust to help turn a rough sketch into something real.
So I built the kind of studio I wish more businesses had access to: personal, creative, and rooted in genuine relationships.
