Hi friends!

I’m Tristin - a creative, compassionate, curious designer.

Long story short: I enjoy creating and helping others achieve their success.

Professionally: I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts with a specialization in oil painting and printmaking, am certified in UX Design, and currently excel as a digital media specialist. My expertise lies in social media management and web design, where I leverage my artistic background to create compelling and impactful online experiences.

Personally: I’m enjoying life in South Philly with my husband and our adorable dog, Cookie (check out the pics below!). In my free time, you’ll often find me buried in a good book, scrolling through social media, doodling, exploring the world with my film camera, tinkering with typewriters, or daydreaming about my next creative project!

I’d love to hear from you—ask me a fun question!

How it started…

My entire life I have been creating. My mom says I was making art since I knew how to hold a crayon! On top of that, I have always, always been intrigued by psychology. In college, I studied fine arts (with a concentration in painting and printmaking) and took as many psychology classes as I could fit into my schedule which landed me a minor in psych.

How it’s going…

After graduating, I fell into the void of not knowing what to do. I leaned into design because it was a way to be creative and also help fulfill peoples’ needs. I got certified in UX Design and wanted to jump in head first. I work full time as a Digital Media Specialist focusing on web design and social media management for a small business. I am ready to give myself room to grow!
