In My Own Words

After 10 years professional creative art direction and design, I have worked on a massive portfolio of clients and projects. Everything from large, multichannel advertising campaigns for ad agencies; to websites, catalogs, and products for private brands. I consider myself a champion for good design practices and I'm always collecting data on visual trends.

Above all else, I enjoy collaborating with a team and helping the people around me grow along the way. Please feel free to reach out, I truly enjoy meeting likeminded people and talking about design.

Specialties: - Creating designs that aren't only good looking, but are functional and effective - Creating unique identity and branding marks for clients in a wide array of styles - Vast knowledge of Adobe and Microsoft programs
