Hi, my name is Leah!

I’m a Junior Web Designer at Capitol Tech Solutions, where I focus on crafting engaging, user-friendly websites that connect businesses with their audiences. I graduated from Sacramento State in 2024 with a BFA in Graphic Design, where I built my foundation in design through coursework, internships, and involvement in the university’s graphic design club, which connected students with local creative professionals. Alongside web design, I also specialize in digital and print media and brand design, with a focus on thoughtful, collaborative solutions.

I grew up in the Bay Area and moved to Sacramento for college, where I found opportunities to merge my passion for creativity with community and collaboration. From designing for student organizations to working on professional projects, I’ve shaped my process around adaptability, continuous learning, and the belief that the best design comes from shared ideas and meaningful interactions.

Outside of work, I stay creative through drawing, painting, sewing, and photography. In my free time, you’ll usually find me listening to music, spending time with friends and family, traveling, thrifting, or trying new food spots. I’m always up for a good matcha latte and I’ll never say no to sushi :)
