Grace is designer with formal training as a fine artist.

Currently the Creative Director at Sabin, a manufacturer specializing in acoustics and lighting for commercial interiors, Grace contributes over 5 years of experience in the Architecture and Design industry. Sheleads the marketing team in shaping the brand’s visual identity, developing strategic campaigns, and creating content that communicates Sabin’s design-driven approach to performance and aesthetics.

She has guided teams through rebrands, product launches, and interactive tool rollouts. Representing B2B brands over her career, Grace has developed a knack for translating technical product stories into accessible, human messaging without losing nuance.

Her previous work consists of photo-sculptural representations of memory, highlighting inaccuracy and entropy. Her work encourages dialogue between the compulsively documented and the decaying web of the lived.

Grace’s BFA was supplemented by a studio practice in Copenhagen dedicated to interior architecture and sustainable design standards. She was based in Jackson Hole at the onset of the pandemic and relocated to the countryside to apprentice on a diversified family farm. Grace has also lived in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and managed a hydroponic greenhouse that provided produce to vendors, grocers, and shelters. Withal, she is glad to be back in the design world and has loved the soft rumble of Chicago trains in recent years.

. .

Grace's interests include: reading sci-fi, birding, backpacking, sewing, cross-country skiing, and woodworking.
