I am a graphic designer with work you’ve (hopefully) seen on Apple TV+, Netflix, FX Networks, and more. I have over 8 years of experience in the U.S. film industry and designs featured in 40+ shows and commercials.
I have always loved pursuing big, ambitious goals. Like working in film – a goal I set at the bright-eyed age of 11. Then, I ran off and became a graphic designer instead. Fast-forward about 15 years: When I figured out that I could merge my love of graphic design and my long-time goal of working in film, I was ALL IN without a second thought. Figuring out how to GET this job was tough. Once I landed that first film graphics gig, I thought the hard part was over.
But I quickly learned that my dream was now also my JOB. I had bosses to answer to, deadlines to meet, industry politics to navigate and soo much to figure out.
There was no easy-to-learn, standardized process for getting this job done and getting it done well – so I made one. And then I made A Graphic Designer Made That: How to be a Graphic Designer for Film and Television to help others launch their creative film careers and launch them on the right foot.
