Hi! I’m Kathleen!

I am an art director, graphic designer + educator. I enjoy design as a means of creative expression and story telling, with the ability to influence and preserve culture.  I am currently interested in working with publications, campaigns, and big ideas in the Pacific NW.


I am a board member at the Independent Publishing Resource Center and graphic design educator at Portland State University. I design and promote Bike Summer. Recently, I was art director for newspapers Willamette Week and Portland Mercury, and comic book designer at Dark Horse Comics.
