hi, i'm

the senior editor of Shaping Design, Wix's premiere publication for design professionals.

 

Prior to this, I was an associate editor at Fast Company, with over 400 bylines across print and digital.  I covered breaking geopolitical news, as well as long-form trend stories, timely deep-dives, interviews, profiles, and think pieces across the spectrum of branding, design, and culture.

 

Before that, I was the editor of Design Observer, founded by renowned designers Michael Bierut and Jessica Helfand. I was also a contributor to AIGA Eye on Design, the publication for emerging designers.

​

Freelance work:

• "Middle school, revisited," The New York Times. Kids section of the Sunday print edition, April 30, 2023

• "Rich Tu is pushing design to take a generational leap," Soho House

• "99 movie crosswords," A24 (copy-edited)

 

You can catch me away from my keyboard, too. I:

- Moderated a Clubhouse chat with the COLLINS designers behind Match's moody rebrand

- Served as a judge for the 2018 Making Vinyl Packaging Awards

- Was a mentor for Aspire to Her, which helps young businesswomen get their careers off the ground

​

I studied fashion design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City and history at Michigan State University.
