Under construction!
Thank you for your interest! Unfortunately, there isn’t much to see here right now as I am currently revamping this site. I will be publishing pages when I feel they are presentable, rather than publishing them with placeholder text and images. Please come back and hopefully I will have more for you to see!

Hello there!
Hello there!
Hi there! My name is Claire and I’m an aspiring visual designer/data analyst (& more!)
As you can tell, I’m sort of changing gears at the moment. I am currently learning UX Design and Data Analysis. I’ve always loved design that tells a story or evokes some kind of emotion. I like things that are imaginative and unique, but I also find myself seeking out patterns anywhere I can.
I am also big on hobbies! I like to draw, listen to music, and read during my free time. Currently, I am learning how to knit and crochet. Grandma hobbies, as the youth say these days?
I’m in a transition period in my life right now so I hope you like what you see here and join me on my journey!

Though I’m not very good at it, I love to draw. So, I’ve been challenging myself to practice as much as I can. I do mostly digital art, but I have also done a few linocut block prints.
I am a new to the fiber arts. I learned how to knit from my late great aunt when I was little and picked it back up recently. I am also learning how to crochet. I knit/crochet mostly scarves and am looking to branch out into other types of clothing.
I enjoy photography, though I’m not very good at it. I shoot mostly still life - anything that sparks emotion or inspiration.
I am a big lover of sports. I’m not much of a stats guy as I really just watch for the vibes. I tune into primarily Bay Area teams, but sometimes I’ll try to catch Premier League matches or watch Grand Prix highlights. It’s also an exciting time for women’s sports, professional and collegiate, and I am along for the ride. LET’S GO BFC, GSV, PWHL SJ!!
I have also recently renewed my interest in reading. I used to love to read as a kid, but once it became a requirement in school, I lost the joy. Now, I have found genres I love and I have a library card (again)!
