The story,
so far

My journey started with an X-Acto knife and a stack of magazines, piecing together flyers for my band’s gigs. Designing shirts for Weezer led to my first print shop role, and soon I was helping Staten Island businesses shape their brands and build websites. But I quickly realized visuals alone weren’t enough, I needed to understand the “why” behind the work.

Designing with intention pushed me toward brand strategy: understanding business goals, clarifying mission, knowing the audience, and defining what truly sets a company apart. Only then can you craft an authentic voice and visual identity that works.

Over the past seven years at MarketAxess, I spearheaded a full visual identity transformation. I collaborated closely with the marketing team on campaigns, directed junior designers, and worked alongside web developers to shape the website, ensuring every digital and physical touchpoint stayed tightly aligned with the MarketAxess brand identity.

Together we refined design processes, established a scalable system, and built a cohesive presence that amplified the company’s voice in the fintech space.
