In my own words
— TylerI am a confident and creative designer living in the beautiful Northwest.
I am self-motivated, self-sufficient with a strong background in both print and digital media. I have worked extensively in the outdoor, travel and food industries producing high-end consumer facing and B2B designs. I am detail oriented with a comprehensive understanding of industry software and best practices. I love and admire all forms of art from typography to rock and roll.
