Hi, I’m Dani — a multi-interested designer, writer, and creative director kickin’ it in Brooklyn. Currently, I'm a Brand Creative Director at Headspace.

I have over ten years experience working with in-house brand teams and independent clients leading design strategy, brand identity, brand marketing, creative campaigns, art direction, and copy.

I've been a part of the wonderful teams at Oscar Health, Stink Studios NY, Intercom, and Vox Media. Freelance clients include Airbnb, Impossible Foods, Webflow, Gem, Our Place, and more.

I have a BFA in graphic design from RISD, I recently wrote a kids' book, and I highly respect good people and bad puns.

A Little Book About Ideas empowers youngins’ ages 0-4 to understand what ideas are, be confident in theirs (no matter the size or silliness), and grow them from inkling to reality. The amorphous concept of ideas is represented through colorful shapes and textures, punctuated by hand-drawn type and joyful objects of play. I worked with the talented folks over at A Kid’s Company About throughout the publishing process and am so grateful for their expertise.

Pictures like this make my heart explode.
