Hi, I'm Tess! A New England-based Creative Lead and Art Director with over 13 years of experience creating work that feels authentic, attainable, and inspirational.

My work encompasses both in-house creative direction for home, lifestyle, and luxury brands, as well as personal design consultation. No matter the aesthetic, I thrive on translating big creative ideas into cohesive visual narratives that connect with people. Whether art directing on-set, building innovative photo strategies, or diving into 3D production, it's the attention to detail and thoughtful decision-making that make the difference.

Throughout my career with brands like Wayfair, Birch Lane, AllModern, and Joss + Main, and developing my creative vision for @smithandberyl, I bring directorial clarity grounded in collaborative leadership. I'm drawn to partnering with brands and clients ready to elevate their visual presence and tell their story with intention.

Let’s connect and start creating something that feels natural, fresh, and inspiring together.
