Greetings!
I'm Sky, and I fancy myself a designer... and sometimes an artist, musician, or writer. I am a native Oregonian, currently based in the Portland area.
I possess a bachelor's in graphic design, an associate's in multimedia design, and a one-year certificate in web design. This process ran parallel alongside two decades as a musician and creative in underground music scenes. Music allowed me to express myself in performance, writing and recording with a variety of projects. My design and media skills allowed me to help the local scenes by creating identities, merchandise, websites, album layouts, illustrations, flyers, fan-zines, photography, and videos for bands and labels.

As the Multimedia Designer at Audix Microphones, I have helped launch their new e-commerce website, eight new products, and a few fresh ad campaigns. Along with handling product photography and the creation of print and digital ads, I also managed their website structure and content. I'm known to be a fast-paced worker, so I have dabbled in extra responsibilities like SEO and email campaigns (MailChimp).
As a freelancer, I work with bands, small companies, and independents on a per-project basis. While these projects are typically logos, I have also made WordPress websites, ads, various layouts, and acted as a branding consultant.
Personally, the human experience inspires me — artistic expression, emotion, and dramatic contrast. I love exploring the relationships of beauty and ugliness, kindness and frustration, organization and chaos. I appreciate the contrast between these sorts of relationships, regardless of medium.
Wanna make something new? Wanna talk about aliens? Hit me up!
