Thelma is a graphic designer and creative problem solver.
Her happy place sits at the intersection of design, tech, and social good.
She has spent most of the past ten years tackling digital, print, and tech solutions for passionate organizations nationwide. From event branding and swag to reports and newsletters, WordPress website re-designs and development, and email marketing and operations, she has a knack for plugging into different teams and making things happen!
In 2022, Thelma joined her friends and collaborators at Fresh Eyes Digital as Production and Design Director. Her role works across clients to design and launch digital marketing, fundraising, advocacy, and advertising for some extraordinary progressive nonprofits across North America.
In her spare time, Thelma is probably binging old shows on Netflix, laughing at dumb TikTok jokes, and forgetting to water her plants. Sometimes, she illustrates and animates for fun. She is also very active with her local Junior League – ask her about it!
Thelma lives in Oakland, CA, with her partner Brandon and their two cats, Unagi and Bento.
