Crafting Visual Narratives
Graphic Designer, Illustrator, Creative—whatever you want to call it.
Graphic Designer, Illustrator, Creative—whatever you want to call it.
Hi there! I'm Sarah—born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio and studied in Columbus at Columbus College of Art and Design. I currently reside in Cincinnati as a graphic designer, illustrator, creative—whatever you want to call it—working at Ripple Junction Apparel company.
I work with a ton of different pop culture licenses to create graphics for women's apparel. We sell to big box stores like Walmart and Target, as well as specialty customers like Urban Outfitters, PacSun and Hot Topic (my inner emo teenage-self was very excited about that last one).
I work on identifying graphic trends within apparel and to stay up to date with the ever evolving fashion industry. Long story short, I live and breathe Pinterest and Adobe and I couldn't ask for anything more. I have many different interests, so I love being able to work on a variety of licenses that range from anime, to TV shows to classic cartoons (I swoon when I get to work on Peanuts Comics <3).
Offline, I love to travel with my siblings and partner—we'll be heading to Mexico in the fall and Tokyo next spring! If I'm not traveling, I'm either outside exploring or cuddling with my cats playing Stardew Valley while cat TV plays in the background.
If you ever want to chat, say hi, or possibly work together on an upcoming project, just send me an email! I'd be happy to hear from you no matter the reason.
Bonus Fun Facts
I'm a Foodie: any kind of Asian food is the way to my heart, but I will not turn my nose up at any kind of food. Part of the reason I love to travel is for the food.
I love to bake: I recently got hooked on the sourdough train, but I have loved making cookies and other desserts and sharing them with the people I love.
I'm a plant lover: I will take any chance I can get to put my hands in the dirt. I probably have 50+ house plants and I only kill one occasionally.
I am a creative through and through: I love trying new crafts or DIY projects—anything where I can use my hands to create gets me excited. Pottery is one of my favorite hobbies, and I want to pick up crochet next!
I have 2 cats: Ace and Mew—and I love taking goofy pictures of them. If you've never taken a 0.5x angle picture of your cat from above, you should try it—it really is a good laugh.
