I’m Sonya, a painter, illustrator, designer, and art director based in Boulder.

I find purpose empowering people through art and design and I’m interested in working with brands and organizations that are excited to meet the changing needs of people and their communities. I believe that hands-on exploration leads to the most compelling design outcomes and that design always improves when informed by diverse perspectives. Brainstorming, sketching, and color theory are all significant to my creative process.

During my eight years of in-house, agency, and non-profit experience I’ve worked with talented teams to produce strategic solutions for brands including Nestlé Purina, Duracell, Lagunitas, and the Denver Art Museum. My favorite work involves illustration, branding, and environmental graphics.

I grew up in the Midwest and now call Colorado home. Some things I love include reading, thrifting, biking to avoid driving, and running. I enjoy living in the city but prioritize getting away frequently. I spend a lot of my time outdoors, working on personal creative projects, and discovering new experiences in and around my city.
