About

Hello!

 

Hello! My name is Lily and I’m a graphic designer and artist, living and working in the city of Chicago. In 2016, I graduated with a dual-degree in Journalism and Writing-Intensive English from Marquette University. In 2020, I earned a certificate in Graphic Design from Parkland College. Since then I have transferred my passion for storytelling into a career telling visual stories for a variety of clients. Currently I am an Educational Graphic Designer for Risepoint.

Previously I have worked as a brand designer at Storyhorse Branding, working with clients like Hilton, World Business Chicago, and Old Arthur’s Barbecue, among others. I have worked (in full-time and contract roles) for companies like Hilton Supply Management, Hindman Auctions, the University of Illinois, the Urbana Country Club, and Flex-N-Gate Corporation, a multi-billion-dollar automotive manufacturing company.

In my free time I love walking my dog by the lake, finding new coffee shops around the city, and kayaking. I also have a side business painting animal portraits which you can see more about here.
