About the studio

I'm a social media specialist and creative strategist from Los Angeles. I run a one-person studio, work in-house at Cornerstone College, and founded KOKO — a quiet-luxury brand launching in SS26.

Portrait

In studio — Los Angeles, 2025

Six years, forty-seven brands, and one very consistent belief: people remember taste.

I started this studio in 2019 because the brands I loved didn't have anyone helping them on social — and the brands with big social budgets kept losing their voice. I wanted to fix that, at a small enough scale to keep the craft.

Today I split my time between agency-style client work, an in-house role at Cornerstone College, and building KOKO — a quiet-luxury label I've been sketching since 2024.

I care about warm palettes, real photography, restrained motion, and content that saves well. I'm openly obsessed with AI as a workflow tool, and openly protective of the parts it should never touch.

Principles

What I believe.

01

Craft over noise

Fewer, better assets. Always.

02

Editorial by default

Everything should feel like a magazine, not a feed.

03

Curious about AI

The tools change; taste doesn't.

04

Warm and slow

The brands that last aren't the loudest.
