"You're an actor annnnd a brand & web designer?"

I started designing websites thinking it would be a great "survival job"—because in theater, even the people with actual Broadway credits are out here bartending between gigs. (It's bleak.)

But then design went from "thing that pays bills" to "thing I actually love doing." And as a result, what started as a pandemic project helping artist my friends make their websites better turned into a full ass business serving creative entrepreneurs across countless industries and fields.

All I can say is, thank GODDDDDD I'm a stubborn Taurus that refuses to pick a lane—because I now have this weird, wonderful setup where I run a design studio and perform professionally in NYC and beyond. 

Kind of a gag, if I do say so myself!!!

wait, wait, wait....

(And helping you COMMUNICATE yours is my whole ass thing.)
