Hey, I’m Maddie.

I’m a package designer based in Chicago, driven by solving complex challenges and pushing creative boundaries through thoughtful, story-driven design.

My Approach

Collaborative

My approach is rooted in collaboration and strategic thinking. I work closely with partners to understand the brand, consumer, and challenge, creating packaging that’s clear, engaging, and effective.

Iterative

My process is intentionally iterative, allowing ideas to evolve and strengthen through collaboration. Through exploration and refinement, I shape a solution that captures brand identity while balancing creativity, clarity, and functionality.
