My name is Casey McWilliams (Capece) and I design stuff, illustrate things, take instant photos, and set type.

Coming from a small town in Carroll County, Maryland, I have engrossed myself in some form of art since pre-school. Since graduating with a BFA in Graphic Design from Pennsylvania College of Art and Design, I have worked in corporate graphic design settings, including the legal and finance industries. Meanwhile, I also freelance for various clients, including designing for galleries, boutique legal firms, non-profits, and events and weddings. Shortly after joining the full-time workforce, I decided that I was not finished with my education. I began my journey to earn an MFA in Communication Design through Kutztown University in 2019 and graduated in 2023.

While graphic design is the focus of my career, art and design extend beyond my 9-5 job and into my personal life through continuously trying new mediums and using my tabletop letterpress. In addition, I often travel to new places, whether a new city, state, country, campsite or hiking trail - I love to explore and experience cultures beyond my own through food, drink, art, and architecture.
