Hi, I’m Tiffany.
I’m a design and brand professional interested in the relationships between materials, objects, products, places, and the stories we build around them.
My background spans floral and event design, landscape architecture, luxury textile design and manufacturing, and the visual arts. Working across these disciplines has given me a sensitivity to composition, material, and environment, as well as an appreciation for the people, craftsmanship, and processes behind what gets made.
Over time, I’ve become increasingly interested in the systems and stories behind what we make—how ideas move between designers and makers, how materials shape a product or place, and how visual identity can communicate its character and value.
Today, I work across brand strategy, visual identity, creative development, and material-driven design. I’m drawn to thoughtful work where products, places, craftsmanship, and storytelling come together—and to the quieter details that make an experience feel distinctive and worth engaging with.
