Amanda is a graphic designer whose diverse portfolio in print, digital, and environmental graphic design brings a wealth of experience to our firm, where Amanda oversees our public face, from branding and collateral materials to digital marketing campaigns. Thirteen years of experience working with architects allows her to seamlessly step into projects and visualize a cohesive, final product that fits the client's vision.
In a numbers-driven household—her parents are an engineer and an accountant—Amanda found her creative outlet by painting and crafting with her grandmother. After attending an arts high school, she achieved a bachelor's degree in Communication Design from Pratt Institute, where she began an internship at an architecture firm and found her calling in designing visual complements to complex building projects.
Amanda's previous experience incorporated print, digital, and environmental graphics, where she guided clients through simple logo designs, websites, and fully branded corporate office spaces at firms such as Design360 Inc./Swanke Hayden Connell Architects, Hillier Architecture, and RMJM. Clearly she has a knack for making things look “just right": her work has been featured in Interior Design magazine, showcased in American Institute of Graphic Artist's “365/30” exhibition, and is part of the AIGA Archive at the Denver Museum of Art.

Like architects, I seek visual balance in design—in the proportions, the push and pull of images, the interplay of dark and light.
