My background spans brand identity, social media graphics, merch and product design, web graphics, and illustration. I understand how design functions inside a living brand because I run one. Every tool I use, every file I produce, and every decision I make is tested against real-world application.

Client Work
Olivewood Designs
Logo Design • Brand Identity • Retail Booth Design Consultation
Olivewood Designs is a family-owned handmade goods business that grew from a single market booth into a nationally recognized e-commerce brand with worldwide shipping over eight years.
I designed the original logo and brand identity, building a mark centered on a heart shape that became the defining form of their entire product line. That motif carried across thousands of handmade pieces sold at markets and through e-commerce, and it remains the visual anchor of the brand today. I also consulted on retail booth design as the business scaled its market presence. The owner is available as a reference.
