welcome! so glad you’re here!

I’m Autumn! A huge fan of vintage design, funky typefaces, and illustrator.

I’m a graphic designer based out of Hattiesburg, Mississippi. In May 2024, I graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Southern Mississippi. All my life I’ve felt a deep calling to art and found my way to graphic design while in college as a nursing major. When I switched paths to pursue what I love, I found a passion for the relationship between problem solving and creativity in design. My true loves for design lie in illustration, branding, and packaging design.

My work includes collaborations with Kendra Scott, Coca-Cola, Tractor Beverage Co., and Austin Mini Art.

In addition to my freelance work, I’m very passionate about being an art vendor at local markets! I sell prints, greeting cards, stickers, and introduce something new every month. It’s truly my passion project that allows me to create but gets me out from behind a screen to meet the loveliest people!

When I’m not behind my screen you can find me traveling and exploring new places with my sweet husband, thrifting , reading, baking a sourdough loaf, and playing with my two golden retrievers, Lennon and Winston.
