designer, production artist, Crafter & painter, supreme defender of process.
I make files perfect.
Hi, I’m Rachel, a designer and maker who brings to the table a healthy blend of creative energy and rational thinking. I have 18 years of experience in an agency setting and have contributed to award-winning campaigns and rebrands as a Studio Manager, Art Director, Designer, Photographer, Retoucher and Production Specialist, with 13 of those years spent successfully managing teams.
I have worked on a wide array of clients — financial, pharma, healthcare, communications, travel, food service, retail, data protection, and more — doing everything from print ads, direct mail, and OOH to digital campaigns, social content, and brand takeovers.
My successes, beyond the day-to-day efficiency of running a studio, span a wide array of process and operations improvements, as well as uniquely creative solutions to complex production problems. Of all the skills in my repertoire — strong design sense, keen understanding of print and digital production, obsessive proofreading tendencies — what I pride myself in most is my ability to problem-solve across all facets of a business.
Some weird brags:
I can say the alphabet backwards in under 3 seconds.
Patton Oswalt included me in his list of “The 20 Funniest People on Twitter” in 2014 and I’m still riding that high.
I once had to wait alongside the Yankees — most notably A-Rod — while waiting for valet. I was dressed as a clown.
