Raised in the coastal town of Santa Cruz, California, Sierra’s creative perspective was shaped by the outdoors, a curiosity for art, and a lifelong pull toward exploration. She earned a BA in Art Studio with an emphasis in Graphic Design and a minor in Business, grounding her creative practice in both expression and intention.

Approaching design as both craft and problem-solving—she uses visual language to bring clarity, beauty, and purpose to ideas. Her work is informed by the quiet intelligence of nature, the energy of music, and the connective power of community, all of which influence how she builds thoughtful, enduring visual stories.

Sierra currently works as a Senior 3D Visualization Developer at Patagonia, where she has spent over nine years developing expertise in illustration, logo design, and 3D visualization. Outside the studio, she’s most at home moving through landscapes—running forest trails, wandering snowy mountain paths, or returning to the coastal places that have shaped her. She’s continually drawn to movement, place, and the quiet intersections where creativity and the natural world meet.
