hi, I’m leah…

a graphic designer with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Northeastern University’s College of Arts, Media and Design. People, community, and story-telling are at the heart of my creative practice.


What interests me most about art, design, and creativity is their ability to provoke thought, inspire new ideas, and bring people together. This focus is reflected in my projects like Collagerie and my work with The Avenue Magazine.

Reflecting on my time at Northeastern University, two of the most formative experiences were spending five weeks at the Basel School of Design and studying at the University of the Arts London for a semester. Both experiences shaped me as a designer by exposing me to different approaches to design education while deepening my appreciation for travel, culture, and new perspectives.

Another defining part of my time at Northeastern was gaining professional experience through the co-op program. I completed two co-ops, most recently at the Boston Beer Company, where I worked on the Creative Services team, designing for both internal and external stakeholders. One of the highlights of my co-op was designing the can label for the limited-release Dogfish Head® beer, Bronzed Adonis, an opportunity that allowed me to see a project through from concept to production.

Throughout my education, extracurriculars, and professional experiences, I have developed a thoughtful and detail-oriented approach to design. Whether working digitally or through more traditional artistic practices like drawing, sketching, and painting, I enjoy refining the subtle details that strengthen a concept and finding meaningful stories to tell through research and visual communication.

As I continue my path into the professional design field, I am eager to collaborate with other creative individuals, explore new approaches to my practice, and create work that positively engages with communities.
