My design aesthetic is rooted in vibrant colors, playful shapes, shifting seasons, and the everyday details that make life meaningful. Inspiration comes from travel, family, friends, morning walks with our dog Ollie, and the beauty of the Adirondacks and the Saint Lawrence River. I’ve had the chance to design packaging and graphics for clients ranging from Ben & Jerry’s and Burton Snowboards to Procter & Gamble, Estée Lauder, Northland Communications, higher education, and small businesses.
Exploring repeat patterns and product creation has opened a whole new way of creating for me, and I’m excited to keep growing and shaping what comes next.
I’m a first-generation child of Polish immigrants, and my heritage has always been a quiet but steady influence in my life. Zaba means frog in Polish—a name that felt complicated growing up but one I’ve come to embrace for its symbolism of luck, renewal, and connection to water. Water has always been grounding for me, whether in the calm of summer or the stillness of winter, and that sense of rhythm and renewal carries into the way I approach design.
