Brooklyn, NY  

Hello, it’s nice to meet you!


My name is Megan, I’m an Irish designer based in New York. With a First Class Honours degree in Visual Communication Design and a year of experience working in strategy, branding and digital design in Ireland, I enjoy crafting compelling and striking visual identies and collaborating with clients on digital experience design projects. I bring confident typography, storytelling and audience considerations to my work. My creative practice is grounded in research and strategy; I love to use design thinking to untangle complex problems, and I approach every project with enthusiasm and an open mind. I am always striving to keep learning, exploring new things, and evolving my skill set.
