i’m kd. an art director. a designer. a creative leader. an award winner. a fan of cheese plates. let’s chat!
For 17 years I’ve found beauty in whatever I'm working on. Be it credit cards or cream cheese I'll uncover what makes it special. My background is rich with 360 campaigns for global brands. What I do best is making them feel human and relatable.
I’m as comfortable designing as I am art directing. Mentoring is what brings the most joy. Helping elevate the creative to a level that will make us all shine.
I was raised bouncing around Asia & Europe. (Japan is home.) It made me adaptable, resilient and gifted a true global perspective. Plus, my travel recs? *chef’s kiss* At home you’ll find me cutting hair, book-club’ing, and trying things out as an entrepreneur. My family and I call Brooklyn home. We love hosting our friends for a nice meal, couple rounds of Uno.
