Hi, my name is Gab.

I’m an info designer and illustrator, but my work is really about making sense of information and then communicating those insights. Ideally while building emotional connection 🙂

Before info design, I studied computer science and illustration. Now, I’ve found my happy place creating engaging and informative visual solutions while engaging in fields like policy, science, and business. (The more I don’t know about something, the better!)

I enjoy working with organizations and clients to answer unspoken questions and address community needs. If you feel the tickle of a communication problem, but aren’t sure where to start, let’s get to the root of it together. Shoot me a message at gabkdejesus@gmail.com.

Past Experience:
Info Design Graduate Program Assistant at CAMD Northeastern
Info & Web Design Intern at CSIS
