My passion is helping brands do big things online and off. Graphic designer and brand strategist for 20+ years. When I'm not running design studio Significant Other with my husband, you'll probably find me exploring Toronto or camping with my kids.

How does being queer inform your work?

I think being queer teaches a creative person how to read between the lines and look for deeper meaning. A huge part of our collective journey involves looking inward and asking questions about who we are. Then, when looking outward to find connections and community, we've evolved to be hyper-aware of the subtle signals we and others are putting out into the world.
