Hey, I’m Natalie!

Since you made it this far, you can call me Nat.

A woman with glasses smiling at a restaurant table with a pizza and several glasses of water, sitting next to a window with a snowy outdoor scene.

I’m a designer. Crafter. Pizza lover (clearly). I’m obsessed with the details nobody notices but everybody feels.

My Resume

What excites me

Solving problems to create simplicity from ambiguity, and seeing the world. I want to have ice cream in as many places as possible.

My design superpower

I'm observant, adaptable, detail-oriented and reliable.

A few of my favourite things

Crafting, curating the perfect playlist, reading with my husband, time with family and friends, staying active, visiting my local cafe.
