MISSION

Connecting the dots with a knack for conversation
and a keen sense of observation.

Armed with a depth of experience, Alyssa draws from her diverse background while helping clients
feel confident and inspired by the design process.
This includes educating clients along the way,
so that the end result feels collaborative and empowering.

EXPERIENCE

With several years of freelance and full-time experience under my belt, I can tackle a range of creative projects. If you're a freelance client that needs help with a one-off project, or an agency that is looking to hire someone with Art Direction, Design Direction, or even Creative Direction experience. I'm your girl.

EDUCATION

I hold a B.A. in Sociology from Boston University ('06), and a Post Graduate Degree in Design from Portfolio Center ('12) in Atlanta, Georgia.

My undergraduate focus was the community and the construction of identity through 'Race', Ethnicity, and Culture. With a minor in Art History, my future foundation in Visual Communications was well-laid. My current practice centers on a research-forward approach, which has been a great way to bridge conversations between Design execution and Design intent. 

In addition to standard degrees, I have also kept improving my craft by participating in continuing education courses, in diverse topics at institutions including The School of Visual Arts (SVA) in New York, Type @ Cooper, Fleisher Art Memorial in Center City, Philadelphia Academy of Fine Art (PAFA), and MassArt in Boston.
