Hi. My name is Milli.

I’m a graphic designer, illustrator, and lettering artist in Newburgh, NY, in the center of the Hudson Valley. I’m also: a seasoned makeup artist; a yogi; a gamer; a home cook; a bookworm; a music-lover; and a photographer. I create around the clock and I love every second of it.

As a graphic designer, my background is a bit unusual: I started art school at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, but I ultimately earned a Bachelor of Arts in Communication Studies (minor in New Media Arts) from CUNY-Baruch College, with magna cum laude honors. I’ve also worked as a professional makeup artist for more than 12 years, including backstage at New York Fashion Week. As a result of this multi-disciplinary experience, in my practice I combine my sharpened artistic intuition—as well as my pointed knowledge of brush techniques, both traditional and digital— with visual communication expertise.

I currently work as an in-house designer for Davis Publications, the publisher of SchoolArts magazine and resources for art educators. I also regularly freelance for a number of clients in the beauty, wellness, and music industries.
