My journey into web design began in the early days of the internet, back when Geocities ruled and animated backgrounds were all the rage. Armed with curiosity and a knack for creativity, I taught myself HTML and Photoshop, laying the foundation for what would become a career fueled by passion and innovation. My love for digital and web design only deepened during my high school years as a media major, ultimately leading me to pursue a degree in graphic communication at Baruch College.

Since then, I have worn many creative hats as a freelance web designer, content strategist, and web producer, collaborating with brands like Kate Spade to craft engaging digital experiences. I am also the creative force behind Originally Remixed, where I blend my artistic vision with strategic thinking through styling projects, content strategy, and wearable art.

When I am not immersed in pixels and code, you will find me exploring new destinations, capturing moments through my lens, staying ahead of fashion trends, getting crafty, or tending to my garden.

Oh, and if you were wondering, all the nature shots you see on this site are my own, taken at the beautiful Bowman’s Hill Wildflower Preserve in New Hope, PA. Bringing my creative vision to life, both online and through my camera’s viewfinder, is at the heart of everything I do.
