I’m Tom—a freelance Visual Designer working out of Chicago, Illinois.

I spend most of my days being a curious, problem solver type. Luckily for me, my profession, and hopefully for you—that’s just the kind of person I am.

My focus is crafting brands, building websites, and uplifting products. I strive to carry a concept-driven, design ethos from beginning to end.
