Hi there
Studio 2 Skip is a Bozeman, Montana-based design studio specializing in graphic design, branding, website development, marketing, and photography.
I got the name from ski lingo — you never call your last run of the day; instead, you say 'two skip.' Hence my goal is to be the last studio you'll ever need.
My goal was to create a studio where my clients feel like they have a trusted partner they can rely on, like having an in-house designer by their side.

Beyond work:
In the early stages of my academic journey, I was committed to becoming a chemical engineer, dedicating myself to rigorous coursework in chemistry and math. However, a pivotal moment during my sophomore year led me to immerse myself in Greek humanities, embracing the study of ancient languages, arts, and history (this had my family thinking WTF).
Amidst the pressure to choose a practical career path, I stumbled upon graphic design, reigniting a dormant passion for art and prompting me to pursue a degree in marketing. Today, armed with a unique blend of analytical skills honed from my scientific studies and a creative perspective derived from my immersion in the humanities, I navigate design challenges with precision and inspiration, grateful for the unforeseen twists that have shaped my fulfilling career journey in graphic design.
