About me:

Growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area, I was always drawn to typography and graphic design. I started studying in San Francisco at the Art Institute but wanted a change of scenery and to really challenge myself by getting out of my comfort zone. An opportunity came up for me to move to Christchurch, New Zealand to finish studying graphic design.

After finishing my degree and wanting to broaden my experience , I moved to Melbourne in 2012. It has been a very fulfilling experience. After 8 years, I finally moved back to Christchurch, I know how lucky I am and couldn't imagine living anywhere else at this point. This city is so full of art, inspiration, fashion, and amazing people and culture.

Where did the name “Paperplane Collective” come from?
