Hi, I’m Tess.
i’m a designer
Who really loves soup.
I fancy projects that let me…
Develop Brands
Bringing brands to life really gets my creative juices flowing. I love exploring new patterns, colors, and imagery to elevate a brand’s visual language.
Tell a Story
I excel at reading scripts and developing storyboards for commercials. I may not be a Disney artist, but I can certainly bring a script to life.
Illustrate Data
I love taking complicated data and making it digestible to the viewer. Infographics are a great way to tell a story and enlighten readers. I’m a visual learner, so I get it.
Animate HTML5 Ads
I enjoy making static ads cooler with motion.
Project Highlights
Website under construction. More projects coming soon.
My Design Story
My love for design is relatively new, but my passion for making art is not. I’ve been labeled an artist my entire life so it felt natural to pursue a career that let me be creative. My first passion was (soup, but that’s another story) drawing, which morphed into animation. I pursued a B.S in Computer Assisted Graphics at CSU, Chico with the anticipation of joining the video game industry. Instead, I decided to move across the country to Albany, NY, and land a job at Overit. I was hired on as an animator but fell in love with design. Over time, I transitioned into a full-time designer and now work on large-scale print projects, commercial video shoots, social media campaigns, and occasionally dabble in motion design. I work with clients spanning many industries including healthcare, higher education, transportation, health and wellness, B2B services, and more. When I’m not designing you can find me exploring upstate New York with my pup and cooking soup.
