Creative Communications
That Tell Meaningful Stories

For more than 20 years, I've helped organizations communicate ideas that educate, inspire, and connect with people. As Creative Director of DFI Design, I partner with educational institutions, nonprofit organizations, corporations, and local businesses to create thoughtful visual communications across print, digital, web, multimedia, photography, and brand development.

My work spans educational publications, marketing campaigns, websites, multimedia presentations, product packaging, environmental graphics, and visual storytelling. Whether launching a new brand, supporting an educational initiative, or developing consumer packaging, my goal is always the same—to create communications that are clear, engaging, and purposeful.

Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working with organizations such as Kamehameha Schools, Kamehameha Publishing, the Pauahi Foundation, Outrigger Hotels & Resorts, Bank of Hawaii, James Campbell Company, YMCA of Honolulu, and Enjoy Snacks, helping bring ideas to life through strategic design and creative problem-solving.

In addition to leading DFI Design, I teach Website Interface Design at Kapiʻolani Community College. I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Architecture from California College of the Arts, and I enjoy mentoring the next generation of designers while staying connected to new ideas, emerging technologies, and evolving design practices.

At DFI Design, I believe great design is more than creating something beautiful—it is about understanding people, communicating ideas with purpose, and building lasting connections through thoughtful visual storytelling.
