My Story
Hi! I’m Morgan, an ambitious, go-getter graphic designer with a passion for giving a voice to the voiceless. I’m a changemaker, with a background in Diplomacy and International Relations, which is the driving force behind my design.
I’m drawn to all types of stories with all types of characters and aim to use my design skills to ensure that no story is left untold. There is not a time when you won’t find me with a book in hand, a daydream in the back of my mind, or an idea for a story in my head.
While this may paint me as an idealistic dreamer, I wear the name proudly, as I know that stories surround us and make us who we are. Everything has a story, a meaning, or a larger purpose behind it, and I want to be the person to help you tell it.
I’m a proud daydreamer who longs for a world where we all feel loved and heard, and I intend to be one of the people who makes it happen.
