Hi, I'm Kristen —I'm an art director and designer with 13 years of experience building brands from the ground up — brand identity and packaging, with hands-on production experience from press checks and prototyping to custom glass design, and art directing photo and video shoots that carried the brand across digital and print, consumer and trade-facing.
For nine years at 3 Badge Beverage Corporation, I led creative direction across 20+ wine and spirits brands, taking them from concept through production to market — including through acquisition, on brands like Bib & Tucker Bourbon (sold to Deutsch Family Wine & Spirits) and Bozal Mezcal (sold to Maguey Imports). My work's been featured in Forbes, Rolling Stone, Food & Wine, and The Dieline. Before that, I built brands for hotels, restaurants, and clients across hospitality, fashion, and tech in France, the UK, and the US.
Since February 2025, I've continued working with design clients  alongside building Lunch Break Vintage — a live-commerce secondhand clothing and accessories brand. Lunch Break has sold over 4,000 pieces and grown to 25K+ followers across Instagram and TikTok. I've partnered with Valentino Beauty, Quince, Whatnot, and GEM App, and been featured in Newsweek, Business Insider, and Modern Retail.
I’m excited to collaborate on new projects—whether short-term design needs or long-term brand-building partnerships. 
Let’s create something great together.
