Visual Design • Creative Direction • Brand Strategy

I’m a Toronto-based Senior Brand Designer who builds thoughtful, story-driven brands that connect strategy and emotion.

Currently, I lead design across Guardian Capital’s family of companies — developing brand systems, reimagining visual identities, and partnering with marketing, product, and C-suite teams to bring cohesive stories to life. My approach balances craft and strategy: design that not only looks good, but communicates clearly, scales seamlessly, and resonates deeply.

Whether refining an existing brand or building something entirely new, I focus on creating work that feels intentional, human, and a little unexpected.
