Hi, I'm Tiegan*!
I’m a graphic designer who believes in the power of passion, curiosity, and the matrix of connection.
I specialize in brand development and 2D & 3D motion graphics, but my purview extends to all areas of design. If a project needs a new skill, I’ll learn it.
To me, design is a conversation between purpose, poetry, and play. My work lives right at the intersection.
How I Move
I give my all to every project I take on — not because I have to, but because I can’t imagine doing it any other way.
I have always been fascinated by the relationship between expression and emotion. How thrilling is it that a colour, a subtle movement, or a particular pattern of sound can do more than exist — it can make someone feel?
Logic has its place — I love dissecting why something works — but I am always chasing that moment when everything clicks and the idea truly comes alive.
Once, my therapist called me a “mad scientist” because I was always sharing new creative experiments or random projects I’d decided to try. It was the best compliment I’ve ever received.
That same insatiable curiosity fuels everything I make — from design to music to a crocheted cowboy hat (which was honestly a feat of engineering).
Passion
I don't do halves.
I treat every project like it's my favourite — because it usually is.
Curiosity
I love to ask, "why?"
My favourite thing about the industry is the endless opportunities to learn.
Connection
Design is about people.
I guide them through ideas, showing how one thing is entwined with another.
Solutions
Pretty is good; purposeful is better.
Functionality comes first!

What (Else) I Do
Musician & Guitar Teacher
Music was my first love. I started with singing (so much so that we had a rule in my house: no singing at the dinner table) before picking up guitar, which I’ve been teaching at a beginner level since 2022. Most recently, I’ve been diving into music production through countless hours of youtube tutorials.
Creative Writer & Language Lover
I love words — writing, reading, and soaking up linguistics textbooks. I used to get in trouble for reading during tests in elementary school. One of my life goals is to write a book, and I derive a strange pleasure from ruthlessly editing my friends’ essays.
